Judging from the wear pattern around the screw it'd been in there a while!

Not that I'm sure you'd want to risk it to get that last 0.5mm of rubber down to the wear bar, but that is repairable as a "major repair" which means it is sent away and the repair is vulcanised in an oven to make it live long and prosper...

Worth the £30 cost for my scorpion zero with 600 miles on it and a self tapping bolt in the edge blocks of the tread, but not on that sad slick IMHO :lol:
