I bought a second hand Cube last year which came with schwalbe one tyres. They were pretty much new when I got it but have now done just over 1000 miles.

Looking closely at the tyres I can see a few nicks where I've obviously caught some Sharp stones but as yet no punctures..how often do you all change tyres? I'd like to avoid getting marooned miles from home with a puncture if possible

Thanks for all the feedback / advice.

As the tyres have zero tread they're not as someone stated an ideal winter tyre but being only a fair weather cyclist it's not such a problem. The lack of tread does however make it more difficult to gauge wear. I normally run them at 110psi so will be looking for another 1000 miles I guess
