How many miles can I get out of a set of these Avon Roadriders?I have approx 1500 mi on mine and still look like new. They have a relitively soft rubber compound, so if looking for the longest lasting tire, this is most likely not it. I prefer grip over mileage.For these old bikes those two things are not mutually exclusive. Which is why I lament the demise of the Metzeler ME88 rear tire.
