Sorry if this has been asked before, but are schwalbe "TL-easy" ok to be mounted on any tubeless compatible rim e.g. Stan's alpha 340? i.e. just looking to confirm the change that "TL-easy" represents doesn't introduce a level of proprietariness without regard to rim choice in any way? What is the actual physical difference?
Also has anyone got an actual photo of a schwalbe tubeless tyre that's ready to be replaced?
Or, how the devil are you supposed to know when would be a good time to replace them.... Can of worms possibly I know, but thought I'd ask. Car tyres it's easy, tread starts off at 9mm, legal limit 1.6mm, replace around 2mm. How do you know with bike tyres?
I don't keep track of mileage cycled.
So say before a multi day audax or tour, replace or not?
current tyres have already done many thousands of km but look fine. May have many thousands more but may not last another thousand... Thoughts appreciated!
