Have you seen some of the comments, how stupid are some of these people.
The man,s a danger on the road,s,these spike,s only come into affect at over 100mph!!! BAN HIM
Umm yea sure so a spike will only go through a tyre if your going fast.

I wish cagers knew the difference between filtering and overtaking! Most of those comments seem to be have been written by illeducated chavs. People ride 175mph bikes on the road because they don't want to buy a track bike and a road bike. Bikes can control their speed!

Actually, I worry a little about having a blow out at speed. I have rac cover just in case but he is right if your front wheel blows out their is very little you can do.

I had my say on there.

Reading some of those comments,its amazing how retarded people can be.

me too couldn't help myself. It was probably one of these numpties the other day who was stuck behind a bus but was so desperate not to let Bikes past he had his wheels about a foot over the white line, then when a bike did come up behind him he moved out even further. I thought the bike was extremely patient and waited until there was nothing coming before swinging out very wide and appropriately enough gave this driver the finger as he went past, doesn't help the cause i suppose but it gets the frustration of the biker across in an acceptable way

hehe great story

This guy is off Gixer junkies and went out on the same ride that I did 2 weeks ago and he is a bloody nice chap !

so he got his 5mins of fame then....

luckily for him the police have refunded him the cost of his tyre and gunge too

Glad it wasn't one of my truck tyres at £250 a throw plus a callout charge to repair plus lost loads while waiting for the repair to be done, would have cost me the thick end of £400, there are enough bolts,nails other bits of crap floating about on the roads anyway and they allways seem to find their way into my tyres
