On numerous tires, track wear marker bars flag a requirement for substitution, yet another simple check - on the off chance that you can see the highest point of Lincoln's head on a penny when embedded in the tire track, Lincoln's head looking down, it's the ideal opportunity for another tire.

Another approach to check for holes is to begin and warm your bicycle up to running temperature, at that point turn it off and check for holes.
