Hi


.
The problem is the tyres (mainly the back one but i have had problems with
both) loose their shape and develop a wobble.

Are you sure it's not your rims that are giving you trouble? What you
describe sounds like spokes working loose or breaking, creating an out of
true wheel. Or is the bead of the tire actually trying to unseat itself from
the rim?


I kind of thought that too but he said he went to his LBS. I've seen
soemthing like what, I think, he's describing on set of Victorria
tires I had. I rode them for about 800 miles when the problem
developed. then looking the the tire from the front it looks like the
tread shifted a 1/4 of an inch. I've since change to Conti Super Sport
as they seem to last a bit longer then other tires (no sidewall
damage).
