    The K505 fits well and look better than the pirelli sports demon interms of traction. i used the Pireli for commuting an average of 80 miles/day for 1 and haft year until i changed the tire yesterday.

    Be sure to do a write up to tell everyone your opinion on the tires and how they compare to the sport demons. Personally I loved sport demons on my old bike so Im interested to know.

    Well, I am sorry but it is not my intension to discredit the other tire. The Sports Demon is a very good tire. Actually, I used the Demon since I purchased my bike, 3 years ago. It so happen that when I tried the K505, I am more confident in my cornerings and can handle well on the road in terms of hard braking. It wont slide or wobble maybe because of the formation of its tread (more corrogated lines than the demon) . Maybe another reason is the evenly tire road contact in any lean angle vs. the demon which is flat with corner between the center contact patch and the lean angle.

    Didnt say that you were. Id just love to see how the k505s compare as I have never used them. There can never be enough bike tire reviews out there.
