Hi all,
I'm (hopefully) getting my bike back Saturday morning (yay!!!).
While I'm over that side of town I'm going to get some new tires popped on.
My wife just got some pilot powers on her bike and loves them.
I asked for them, but the guy said they don't make the right sized rear power and recommended a pilot power for the front and a pilot road for the rear.
I asked about a 160 rear power and he suggested that the 150 rear road would be better, and just fine with the front power. He said the 160 wasn't made for it and would be too slippy whatever that meant.
I don't care if they don't last forever, and I don't do a lot of touring. I mainly ride through nice twisty roads and want something that will instill a lot of confidence (currently using the default tires - dunlops I think, but they aren't macadams). I'd prefer more stick and less life I guess. And I rarely ride in the rain - mainly because it doesn't rain much here and I'm only a weekend rider.
