Avon Tire Dry Rot and Cracking Sidewalls

The last two sets of Avons I had developed dry rot and long, deep sidewall cracking.



This happened over 4-5 years, but if you dont ride your vintage bikes that much each year you should consider this Avon phenom might take the tires way before mileage does and this assumes ofcourse I am not the only person in the world that this dry rot and sidewall cracking has happened to lately



Avon replaced the back tire the first time this happened, but still there is the inconvenience of it all



Best
