At what temperature do tires start to lose grip?While I was out for a ride
last week in 35 degree weather I lost the rear end going around a corner at
about 40mph.I know I was nowhere near the limits of the bike and had been
riding for about 30 minutes so the tires should have been reasonably warm.The
road was dry and I didn't see any oil or gravel.Is 35 degrees cold enough to
cause that much of a loss in traction?
