I hear a lot of people complain about the tires on a brand new bike purchase. The first thing I do when I buy a bike is replace the tires. I'm not even including tires in the equation.Tires are one of the first places to cut costs. Oddly enough, the tires I like are less expensive than the ones that came on two of my bikes.

Complaining about tire quality is like a baby complaining about the brand of diaper it wears. It's going to get changed anyway.
