I tend to refit my cables, chain, bartape and tyres 3 times a year. So every 4 monthhs, which amounts to about 3200km for me."In many ways, my story was that of a raging, Christ-like figure who hauled himself off the cross, looked up at the Romans with blood in his eyes and said 'My turn, sock cookers'"

When they need doing. Once they are cut badly or puncturing more frequently then they go. I've had some down to the canvas before now and others that have been badly cut after only a few ridesM.Rushton0

It's worth regularly inspecting the tyres for UV degredation and embedded objects in the tread.0

One does not change my own tyres - good god! how beastly!
one employs a small team of trained servants to do it for me - non-payed of course.'since the flaming telly's been taken away, we don't even know if the Queen of Englands gone off with the dustman'.

When the p*ncture f*iry has tracked you down to within 1/2 mile of your front door it's time to change your cover.0
