Bridgestone BT014

[Danny]

I'm looking at getting a pair of these and was wondering if anyone has had any experience with them?

Grippier than an 010
Not as grippy as an 012

Good for a road tyre though, they work well in the wet.

Had a set of these for a good few months. I had an avon on the rear before that and it was dogshyte so was time for a change.

Scrubbed in very easily and in a fraction of the distance reccomended. As a pair theyve never given me a single moment of fear. Ive got full confidence in them both in the wet and the dry.

I would say go for it!!

This is what I was told between the 010 and 020, wrong bike but still...

Thanks for the replies.

I've almost completely scrubbed in the tyre...and yes there are big chicken strips, but I live in London so I'm allowed.

Anyway, these tyres are bloody amazing! I've never had such confidence in my tyres and the bike's handling is so much better with them.

I got about 5000miles out of my 207's, but they are rubbish in terms of grip compared to my BT104's.

The 014's are the replacement for the 010's.

I always used to use 010's. Loved 'em, but now they are discontinued I had a pair of 014's fitted a couple of weeks ago.

Weather has been fairly shite since having them fitted so haven't really had a chance to 'feel' them properly, but they seem to be fairly similar to the 010's. Apparantly they hold/regain their shape better on cornering so give better grip. Allegedly!

I paid £211 for the pair fitted at FWR in Kennington.

I thought they were the 'stickiest' road (ignoring their track range) tyre Bridgestone made? I thought the 012 was more of a touring tyre and the 002 was the sticky track tyre.
