Bike has about 3000km on it now, and I woke up at 0700 on a Saturday ready for a ride to West Germany for the day to hit up some forests... Good news is, I loathe the Scoprions, called a shop today and booked the bike in to have both the front and rear replaced with Pilot Road 5's. I'll plug the read and ask to keep them as backup tyres if I ever need them.
I'm not that creative Although, it was a MUCH easier argument to the wife. Pre screw (oi oi): "But they are shit!", 'No, we need other things'. Post screw (oi oiiii): "I can't ride my bike, I'll make dinner", 'Get them replaced NOW'. All thanks to a quick screw. I'm gonna milk this innuendo as much as possible.
IDK, the motive is strong. Could also be the work of a left-handed drywall handyman. Motive yet to be determined.
