Understanding tyre wear and choosing tyres for your racebike

A short video with Alan explaining the different applications of racing tyres for various bikes and conditions. Also a guide to understanding tyre wear and the causes and remedies.

Very informative, great video. Had a giggle at the comment "If its a hot day 25 degrees" haha I'm in Australia, Queensland, 25 is a nice day in winter up here.

Very nice video! What pressure would you use on a 20-25celcius trackday for a pirelli diablo rosso corsa 2 and what on a 10-15celcius yrack day?

The info bout the wear is correct, but... "if its a warm day, dont switch the warmers on, switch them on about 30 40 min before your session" well, every organisation we ve come across with, you do 5 to 6 sessions, with 40 min in between, so we should switch them on immediately afterall...

Waitwaitwait... You're saying the slick need tirewarmers cause it hasnt got thread to move around and create the needed heat? You re done.... Thread has NOTHING to do with it. the CARCAS flex is what heats the rubber and some semislicks need warmers. Its the COMPOUND that dictates if a warmer is needed. Some semislicks need warmers, some dont, almost every slick does...

You're done more like it !!! Thread is what your clothes are made of. Tread are grooves in tyres. Perhaps the presenter could buy you a dictionary...
