But on a set of Metzler Roadtec 01 yesterday, a bit out of my price range but they come highly recommended from a mate.
The guy who fitted them has them on his own bike, a rapture 650 and says they are the best wet tyres he has ever had on a bike. The feed back from his customers also is very good and no complaints. The only issue may be tyre life, as a few customers have had low mileage out of the rear, one guy getting only 2000 miles from the rear. That may be down to the individuals riding styles, he has 4000 miles on his bike and there seemed plenty of life left to me.
So we will see how it goes and hope it might help fix my issues with the front.
