Re: Tyre pair deal 120/70 and 160/60?
Power 2ct is enough of a touring tyre for me, but I used strada once, it's ok.
I think the biggest reason people have issues with tyres is that they don't check the air pressure often enough and can drive around with a way to low pressure. And pressure is very important for everything, tyres are what keeps you on the road, they are a part of the suspension, they influence the chassi, they influence hp and fuel consumption, they are nearly more important than the rider. |

Pass on the mileage, I don't know.
Yes, excellent in the dry, I can get my knee down on the track with good feedback from the tyre, never felt they were going to let go.

Re: Tyre pair deal 120/70 and 160/60?
Ha fair enough will phone m and p tomrrow and see what they can offer between the 2
As for the pilot 2ct they just don't last long enough for me will cost to much 3 rear tyres in a year is never going to be fun ha  But couldn't agree more about the tyre pressure |
