Re: Avon Storms
They are slightly expensive, if they are the same ones the Essex boys had to use last month in Inverness, but at least you'll have a tyre.
BTW Peg has just said, its perhaps not the tyre at fault, Scottish roads destroy tyres, FACT.

Re: Avon Storms
The roads up there did seem VERY grippy and abrasive. I wonder how the local yokels get on?

Re: Avon Storms
Well you never know, with them being softer rubber they may conform better to the surface and actually wear less, or at least the same as normal.

Yes they get eaten by the roads then you have to go to Inverness in an emergency  . A 2000 mile trip errrr needs two rear tyres. On an RSV Mille last month.

Re: Avon Storms
Doesn't seem too bad TBH, I only got 1200 out of an SC2 rear and that was riding pretty sensibly on it. I know carl demolished a pilot sport in 800 or so.
