Does this mean it's time to change my tires? This is the first pair I ever bought 5 years ago

Nah, you're good for another five unless you take up cycling as a hobby or means of transportation.

Yeah I got my bike 5 years ago after freshman year of college and didn't start riding it really regularly until a year or two ago

>>1087019
That's what I figured, I got another pair of memeskins because these lasted me a long time

They lasted 5 years? Pretty good but you need to ride more. I want you to do your best and cycle to the point where you have to get new tires every year or so. :')

Meanwhile I replace my rear tire every ~5 weeks.

if you start riding, you should also change your gearing so you have more than one skidding patch

At least he used his memeskins more than one week like pic related, a redditor who bought them, and put them with the threads outside for getting a better grip.

They are durable, but as far I know, the rolling resistance is terrible. Memeskins are good if you ride on third world roads, for average and good roads, normal racing tyres are more efficient and if you know how to ride, you won't get too many flats.

Who is this namefig, anyway? Can I see some Shwalbe credentials? I don't think Schwalbe would want their brand promoting suicide, especially for someone's choice in bike tyres.

No, it's a skid meme tire. Schwalbe Marathon Plus are touring bike tires.
