Good evening .........
I've just received a pair of wheels and they are the most lovely thing. However ..... they have Specialized mondo tyres on. I appreciate they're probably as fast as but are they safe ?
My rubber has always had some kind of groove, which just makes them look grippy. Grippy gives confidence.
Any thoughts ? Will I be safe or will I wipe out on the first corner. Should I panic while riding if I see a grey cloud ?
