Time for new tires

[Paul Heim]

I put PR4's on last year but haven't logged enough miles to render a sound opinion. 

As a side note, my bike had a 160/60 rear when I bought it. It cornered more easily and had the equivalent effect on my gearing of going down one tooth on the front, as indicated by the sprockulator...

Anymore it seems I mostly use my bike for commuting to work (76 miles round trip) but I still like occasionally getting out on the weekends and having fun and riding 2 up with my wife.
