Which tire do you think is prone to getting a flat ??

[Peacekeeper6]

So my theory is to NEVER drive exactly in the middle of the road. I usually let the center line run either between my left front tire and the rear, or the right front tire and the rear, depending on which lane I'm riding in. My theory is that road debris like screws and nails will settle on the center of the road, and I'll do my best to avoid running my rear tire over it.

Right Front Tire

:chat:...Well, maybe the Right Front Tire.
Two out of two air leaks/issues for me were my
right front.

Need more data for better information.
Lucky that I only had the two.
Both times I was able to get home. .....:thumbup:

IMO, based on many, many thousands of miles as a single and tandem touring bicyclist with punctures to prove it, your theory needs a serious relook. The overwhelming bulk of the detritus on roadways on this side of the great pond winds up on the right shoulder. Ergo, the biggest risk is to the right front tire of a Spyder.

Murphy says...the one that is most difficult to change out. That would be the back one. :yes:

On two wheels the rear is most common because the front will flip an item and the rear will get impaled by it. Not so much an issue with the Spyder. I agree that most trash is on the right side.
