Default Re: Quick question about scrubbing in tyre

Not being "a morning person" if I have tyres fitted say friday, stick the wheels back on and can't scrub them in, I'll put a bit of tape on the clocks with "New Tyres" scrolled on it. Ready to roll out of bed , roll into work Monday morning , safely instead of lying in the road after the first turn. (been there.)

I always end up on Avons no matter what bike I've got and aledgedly they have a different manufacturing process which does not leave the tyres needing as much running in?

Whatever, I run them in like any other brand. Take it easy on the gas on the corners, big licks on the straights to get some heat into them.

I dream of properly profiled new boots!
