  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

For all you fellow uk residents out there, I've got a semi knobbly but road legal tyre on my bike atm but it passed it's mot JUST because the garage said the tyre was on the 1mm limit. Well the law says it's 1mm across the central 3 quarters of the tyre, but does it mean every single bit of tread? Because my tyre has worn weirdly, it's got about 3/4 mm for one or two tread sections, then suddenly, A FLAT BIT! then it's ok again for one or two, then flat again. That must be what the guy was referring to but I don't want to ride it if it's illegal. Sooo, does it apply to every single bit of tread or am I ok?? Also it says it's a 2.75 21 tyre, is that the same measurement as a 90 9upload me.jpgupload me.jpgg.jpg 0 21 size?
 
Yep it may have passed a MOT but common sense says its well past its sell by date! The wear is caused by the useing the front brake. so if you want the replacement to last longer dont use the brakes :lol::lol::lol:
 
oh, is that why it's worn like that? I'm looking at a normal road tyre to replace it now, lnobbly's just don't handle the tarmac so well. Unfortunately My front brake gets used a lot so guess the new one will just have to bear it :D so when you say it's past it's sell by date, do you mean it's worn out but still legal if a policeman inspects it or no get rid of it I'll get 3 points for using it??
 
I have seen front knobbies wear like that before, for example Michelin AC10s do it too. Like Johnny said, I think the braking loads cause that, no idea why.

The point we're making is that it doesn't matter if it's legal or not. It's worn out, and you should put a new one on.
