Conti Motions are safe...
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

I have 12000 miles on a Conti Motion front tire on my commuter bike.  It still has a few more miles left.

Personally I am never fit Continental tyres: this company is fighting in Europe about forbid 10 years old vehicles to circulate  :ireful:

And I don´t understand them too, because Conti has developed a great tyre for classic bikes

Well, like Einstein said there is only 2 infinite things: the Universe and the human stupidity... and about the Universe I´m not sure...

And now we know the Universe is finite
