Raising the pressure will proubably cause the center tread to wear out faster.I would say change brand of tire or if you like the handling charastics of the tire it still should be cheaper and safer than the mc tire. hmmm hmmm

We just pulled Charlie Ds hydro edge off and he said it was right at 40k on it, it was down to the wear bars. And, we dont ride easy, we ride harder than a lot og guys. so, if you ride easy, you could possible get more. Who knows?
