    I am sure this topic has been talked about before but what tire would you buy? Don Ripa
    I have gone through three sets of pilot powers in 15000 miles, they have been an excellent tire but would like to have options for next set.
    1. Pilot Power
    2. Avon Storm
    3. Continental ?
    4. Pirelli ?
    5. Bridgestone?

    I vote #3. I'm sticking with these as long as they make them/own this bike.

    Stones for me....the BT021's dual compound sport-touring should last a long time and still be sticky enough for some canyon carvers. I've had them on my bike for a while now, one trip to Black Hills this summer, very inspiring.

    Unless you're some sort of track whore.....

    Ive tried most of them over the years. The best all round combo I have found so far is my current bt021's..they work as good as any other tire on the roads i ride on, and the mileage has been great! I have over 7000 miles on mine and just over half gone. thats about the best my others ever went right there!!.Impressed!!!
