Thumbs up New Tyre Day

Just want to put in a good word for TRUE GRIP in Vauxhall.

They put two new tyres on the V-Strom this morning, rolled up there, 45 mins later its all done. I was given a warning about the grip levels and rode to work and home very slowly. (was feeling pressured from a cyclist behind me ). I had the front slip once nothing major.

They also told me my rear brake and chain is on the way out, these are still the same bits as when i bought the bike 11k ago. Is that good mileage?

Just thought I would big them up to the org.

I got some Bridgestone Trailwing tyres sort of off road looking with knobbly bits.
