Default which tyers ?

ok not what your normally would have thourght but...

ive had the bike since august. Now the front tyre is no where near the limit but its looking a little rough. So im thinking about changing it. However ive noticed on the front its a BT010 F and on the rear its a BT020

So what should i do? the rear looks like new so i dont want to change that. However theres also a BT021 now and the thing is im now worried because bridgestone say dont mix the tyers and have the same pattern all round.

So what would you do? keep things as they are till its knackered? or change the front now? and if so what for?

keep riding it unless you feel that its effecting how you ride-you'll get a 020 front on ebay for about 20 quid(partworn).Bridgestone 021 is a newer version of the 020-i wouldn't worry about it but its you whose riding your bike

Keep both till they need changing, I ran 010 front and 020 rear and its a nice combo of tyres.

I'm a bit tight and I dont like chucking tyres away with life left in them.
