Im off saturday to get the Front wheel changed on the Mille

What size should i go for

Ive got this father christmas ride out Sunday and dont want to look a **** and fall off and empty my sack lol

Any other method of running in the tyre?

I only know how to run a tyre in by .....er...riding on it :eatcorn unless you get it up on the paddock stand, run the bike in first gear and sit behind with some emery cloth, but I wouldn't really recommend that matey :biggrin

Empty your sack before you go.

Ride, ride,ride....for 50ish miles, getting the bike over little by little!!!!!

Put the bike up on a stand and wash the tyre surface with warm soapy (dish drops i use) water only, dry then hand wire brush the outer edges mate as you rotate the newbie rubber, i give it another wash..NEARLY ready to rock, warm the tyre up on some fast sections of road before you go hitting the bends or roundabouts with tooo much commitment. (Tyre temp. is always key to grip) Have a fine Xmas Run Ride matey :thumbup
