Looking to a try a new set of tyres. The Conti's seem to get mainly positive reviews across a wide range of bike forums. Has anyone given these a go since the last thread on this topic?
I have sold a few sets of these. They seem like they would be a great tire. Very different touchy feel from anything else on the market. They are suppose to be a real plug and play model. It has to do with the "Chili" compound that is on the outside of the new tire. They claim very little if no break in time.
I like to think though that the "break in time" is just getting back to the feel of new tires and how the handle. Old tires can handle a lot different than new ones. Maybe some will chime in that has a set of these.
They look interesting and are even spec'd for the 1300 according to the Conti site.
I would like to know if anyone is running them also.
the tires do handle well they seem to be scalloping already and I've only got about 1,000 miles on them. When I turn in there is a noticeable "howl" from the front tire.
