Hi again.
Just a general question regarding the difference in tyre brands.
For the last year I've been enjoying my Schwalbe Lugano folding tyres (700c 23mm) as I found them very comfortable and compliant on the road. A couple of weeks back, I noticed the rear one starting to show signs of the wear ( a small bulge) in the wall coming through.
As I was embarking on a long distance ride I decided to change them over to some new Michelin sport dynamic,s I had sitting in the garden shed , but I don't know whether or not it's just a phycological thing, but to me they feel very harsh out on the road and make a once nice smooth bike ride into a bone jarring experience.
The Michelins have got a solid bead as opposed to the folding Schwalbles and was wondering if this has anything to do with it.
If anyone could throw any light on this I would be very grateful to hear your views .
All the very best .
Johnny
