Avon Distanzia front tyre issue
 
Hi,
I brought a pair of Distanzia for my X this year, only done 1500 miles and the front has started coming apart, in the middle of the tyre, it's looking like it been scalloped , little halfmoon cuts in the tyre,
Has anybody had the same problem.
Cheers

Can u post some pics of this to get a better idea of what they look like?

What pressures have you been running them at?

Sorry for the delay,

I am running the tyre pressure between 28-30 for the front and 32 for the rear. ,

I've spoken to chap who fitted then, and he said, I will have to buy a new front tyre and he will send the faulty one to Avon, and await if they will refund, !,

Sorry I've have taken pictures. But still finding hard to upload, I am using dropbox, so any tips.

Update

Been to the tyre shop today,

He said,
Seen this problem before ,

About four ago on the Avon storm, had the same issue, ,
Avon reply was , to carry on riding, as it's only the top layer which is the issue, and it will ware down,.
So a few more miles , it should ok,

I am ok with this, as I love this tyre and also I can't afford to replace both of then.
