well my new tyre and grips finally turned up today(about time too).
ive just fitted them on to my bike but im a bit unsure of the pressure it says to pump the tyre up to(between 2 and 4.5 bar) ive pumped it to about 3 bar and it seems as if it would explode if i pumped it any further also the side wall seems thin to the extreme compared to my old tyre.
heres a couple of new pics anyway.

im really not sure about the red on the grips but they dont come in blue and plain black is just boring.
next up is some new front suspension forks and an overhaul of the brakes + all new cables and outers but for now i think im just going to wait for the weather to improve and then get out for a nice long ride.
