I just opened the box with my Nokian Mount and Ground studded tires that I bought so I can start commuting again. The tag mentions a 30 mile break in period. What's the deal with that? How does a bike tire break in?
Ride it, gently (no hard accelerations or braking) for about 30 miles. Run them at a slightly lower pressure to make sure the studs hit the pavement and get worked a bit in their wells to get seated.
