Okay, so you've got one new knobbly tyre and have a worn-out one on your bike.
You mountain bike mainly cross country single flow tracks.
Thinking of how the bike would react and your safety.
Would you put the new tyre on the front or back of your bike?

Put it on the front, But I would never have to do that, I would buy a tire.

Thanks for replying. From a technical perspective, why would you put it on the front and not the back?
If I had to go that route, I choose the front to be more stable to avoid face planting at the cost of rear traction which if I had to sacrifice that would be my choice feeling that I could control the better in this instance.
