Hey guys!
Took my bike into the shop the other day to get some air. Mechanic took one look at my tires and says I'll need to change them soon (they are about 5-6 yrs old) and it is my commuter so I definitely believe it. Question is how did he determine that? I attached some photos of both my tires (Panaracer Pasela 27x1 1/4)
Also debating on whether to replace my paselas with blackwalls(rear wheel is starting to blow out on the sides) but I do so love the look of the pasela's! Any advice on this front is also appreciated.
