Re: New tyre ordered.
What size do you run on the front - just looked online and they seem to only have 120/70's.

Re: New tyre ordered.
I find them very good and predictable in the wet, although I'm a little more cautious in wet conditions than dry. Never had a "moment" with them so far though.

I think the Angel ST is available in that size and works exactly like a Strada when paired with a Strada rear. **I've just been out to the bike and checked and an Angel ST is in fact what I have on the front. |

Re: New tyre ordered.
As your recommended set work out to £128.84 - Demon Tweaks - Compared to £185.88 for PR4's from Tyre Leader.
I thought sod it, and just bought them. Only one way to find out if you like a tyre. Last edited by shiftin_gear98; 27-06-19 at 02:29 PM. |

Re: New tyre ordered.
Great stuff, look forward to hearing how you get on with them. You'll need a lot less input at the bars to tip the bike into the corners, so be gentle for the first couple of bends.
