Subject: tires - storage
hi atics,
this time I have a more common question on tires.
Does anybody know how long I can store a tire without any negative
affections?
My mechanic told me not to store longer than one year, my tire dealer
told me that you can also use tires that are no longer stored than 5
years. He spoke of environmental influence like ultraviolet sunbeams
which change the rubber of the tire.
Can anybody help me?
Thanx in advance,
Marco
P.S.: The problem is, in Germany in summer itīs sometimes difficult
to get tires, no matter what brand. Too many bikes or not enough
tires...
