I've been getting flats on my front bicycle tire regularly over the past two or three weeks. Fortunately, there haven't been any on the rear tire during that time period. I suspected that it was time to replace the tires and I searched the blog to find out how long it's been since the tires were last replaced. A blogpost from July of 2024 gave the answer. As near as I can estimate, I've ridden 5,000 miles on the set I put on at that time. According to the post, 5,000 miles was about the same number that I had put on the earlier set.
It's still a week from payday, but I couldn't wait any longer to replace the front tire (and tube). Since I haven't gotten any flats on the rear, I think I can hold off changing the rear tire for another week.
I'm making a note of the total miles on my bicycle app.. I can reference this post to keep a more accurate count of the mileage between tire replacment.
8,802 miles.
The cost to replace the tire and tube (including labor) came to ₱ 1,590. That doesn't include the ₱50 tip.
