All,
After nearly 2k miles, it's time to replace my rear (and soon my front) tires. The bike originally came with 4" knobby fat tires. I mainly use this bike for commuting on streets... Sometimes my rides can be very wet. And at least for now, I've sworn off riding when there is ice/snow. Any recommendations for suitable replacement tires?
Thanks!
PS. I had a guy at the LBS tell me I should ride on these tires until I hit steel, his argument being the bald tires make more contact with the road... That might be true, but I can't believe bald is better when roads are other than clean and dry...
