Well ill be trying out those Maxxis Diamonds soon enough, a promise is a promise and after having the PR3 over the last few thousand miles then it sounds like they'll have allot to live up to.


I've since been reading MCN and Bike and low and behold lots of stories about tyres.......call it boring if you will but id much ratner talk about tyres than say helmets.....a helmet might save you once but a tyre saves you every journey.


And apparently the PR3 have some special coating on them that makes them unique in the wet...first id heard of that.


All i can say is that yes they are superb in the wet....they really opened my eyes to wet weather riding......even now with a bald, squared off middle they are still good in the wet.........i had also just got a set for the 600 but i didnt do many miles on those ones.........my main reason for buying them on the 600 was the reported longevity and im sure they last a long time on the lower powered bike........but not so on the thou...it is too powerful so i dont see the justification for the extra price with regards how many miles ill get.


So ill go a little cheaper with the view of getting the 1 season only.
