Default Rider Power results - Avon ST 1st in Mileage and Value!

Hi Fella's,

I after some feedback, good or bad about the aforementioned result.

What do you think, not only about the ST but the Rider Power survey in general?

Steve, you know my opinion on the Avons, and having had 11 sets I'm not surprised by this result, about the only down side I can see with these tyres is the "looseness" when turning in, now don't get me wrong, this is something I love about them and on the SV it makes it just so manoeuvrable into corners, it's just some people could feel a little "out of control" compared to the benchmark Bridgstones.

As to the Rider Power survey, well to be totally honest, I don't give a lot of credence to this sort of thing, passed the point of new stuff for me to try out.

Most of these things are aimed at the weekend riders anyway (mind you it's nice when they get it right).

Cheers Mark.
