New coding has Robin and Brian ranking road rubber ala wax philosophical. It's yet another deep dive into specifics of motorbike maintenance. Add in the complexity of mounting tires and this should've been called "everyone talk at once".

The Dunlop Mutants and Continental ContiMotions take center stage. Eager first impressions segue into meticulous planning of future tire changes ahead of the upcoming Wisco Disco tour. Talk turns budgetary when pricing gets dissected down to cost-effectiveness, all in search of more wallet-friendly options.

Alongside are musings over aging bikes, built-in technology versus third-party add-ons, digital enhancements, user-friendly gadgetry and everyone's favorite: wrench icon woes thanks to proprietary firmware. "Experts" warn against DIY repairs. That is unless you're Robin, who's not so secret solutions are generally drawn from online forums.
