Excellent Tyre choice/info write up

[ballmead]

Here is an excellent write up on choosing road tyres for your ride.

What is very interesting is that they claim that sport touring tyres have more than enough grip for 90% of street riders.

I've just bought myself a set of T30 Bridgestones after riding on nothing but hyper-sport tyres so we'll see how this stacks up soon.

Anyway it's a really good read:

Good write up, When you click on the tyre mileage chart section, I see his favourite tyre is what I use, the Pirelli Angel GT

nice article, lots of great info. I have to slightly disagree with the statement on track scrubs though. I use them all the time, I use warmers and have not encountered any issues (running track days) . I run the advanced grp and even flip rears. As for racing ... different story.

Unless I misread, I believe the author was more referring to take offs on the street. For you, using warmers, riding on track probably is no trouble
