      Out of interest, how do tyre microplastic emissions scale with weight, tyre width, speed, etc.? Just how much better than cars are bikes in this specific respect?

          Exponential? You sure? A lot of things like this go up with the 2nd or 4th power of weight. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an exponential increase before.
