stick it on the back, all that will happen is the tyre will go flat and youre maybe a bit stranded and have to walk home.
i personally use gatorskins and slime tubes on my hack bike, as i ride on an undercliff a lot and theres flint everywhere. no flats yet. also use continental ultra sport tyres on another bike for the same run probably many hundreds of miles now and never got a flat yet with them either.
i would change the tyre but not because of that little split
