Notes on these figures
- Replace · Schwalbe
Published range 2,000-5,000 km for standard tyres. Rear wears 2-3x faster than front, so this is per WHEEL POSITION, not per pair. Schwalbe states plainly that for MTB tyres 'no useful mileage data is possible'.
- Replace on age · Vittoria
Six-year shelf life from manufacture, running in PARALLEL with distance. A lightly used high-end bike reaches age before it reaches kilometres, which is exactly the bike this product is for.
