TyreSafe Warns Bikers of Pothole Threat
TyreSafe has continued its April campaign to promote motorbike tyre safety by reminding bikers that they can reduce some of the problems associated with damaged roads by ensuring their tyres are properly inflated. The increase in the number of potholes on the UK’s roads following the harsh winter has increased the vulnerability of tyres running at incorrect pressures, especially from the angular edges of potholes or kerbstones. This damage can result in dangerous bulges in the sidewall, or cuts that render the tyre illegal.
