But his knowledge doesnt hold true for everyone. It all comes down to personal preference. If you like mountain road tires than that's fine. But don't critisize others on their opinion, and don't impress your father as being the best and know it all of the world. He may be pro, but he ain't the best in the world either. You as I understand it, are a begginer rider, and I would think, that I, having rode a bit longer, would know a thing or two myself. If you dad knows so much, than why did you bother asking here?
