Kind regards
hi to all and mang boy,
after more than 1 year of using the china tire, i must say that it is ok. I have had no problems with the wanda tire. My problem with is with the china inner-tube(interior tube).
My china inner tube only lasted 3months. Upon inspection of a flat, i saw that it was not caused by pointed object, but by poor quality. The inner tube was very thin and i could see future holes in the thin tube construction; where mold marks very thin material. The rubber material itself was decent, it was just too thin.
Objectively, i decided to measure the weight of the irc-japan inner tube (240 grams) -vs- the china made(170grams). This proves the thinness of the china tube material.
I repaired the japan tube and tossed the china tube. But, i still use the china tire (exterior)
