Find I'll soon be in need of a new rear tyre. So thinking about getting the pair replaced (subject to cost).

I wondered where the best/cheapest place to source these?

I came across an on-line place www.tyresalesuk.co.uk but by the time I've added on postage the dealer in town quote is cheaper (ok, I admit, only by a few pence or pounds depending on the tyre make, but possibly more convenient).

I did do a search of BCF but had too much to wade through. If this was covered in an earlier thread please post the link.

Any help appreciated.

I found some good pair deals at: https://www.edgemx.co.uk/index.html

Depends what you're riding... I prefer Michelin's Pilot Powers on my '04 R1. Excellent grip, wet or dry...! Twisted Evil

eh?

i love my 208 std on the rear of the 'ace.. fitted it and scrubbed it in at Cadwell a couple of weeks ago..

make sure it's the std, and not the S tho, as the S doesnt have tread all the way to the edge, and gets slippy in the wet Very Happy
