    I put on a new 009 raven on the back this spring and have 3000 km on it. I didn't think to measure it before i rode and it is 5/32 now. anyone have a brand new that they can measure for me to gauge how fast it is wearing? thanks

    thanks but i didn't see any measurement there, unless i misread. i know they are good i just want to follow the wear as the miles go on but i forgot to measure when they were new.

    Once the grooves in the middle of the tire are gone smooth, I start to watch it close.
    Don't want to see cords. :drink1:
