I have a Boardman Urban Pro on which I have done 1200 miles since April and I was just wondering how long should the tyres last, typically?

    Tyres will wear differently according to road surface and riding style but i would think you are good for a few miles yet. The signal to change is when you start to punc*ure or grip is adversely affected. I have done 1600 miles on my bontrager tyres and they are still looking good.

    Also, how heavy are you, and what are the tyres?

    I am about 9.5 stones and the tyres are Maxxis Detonators.
