Haven't ridden it enough yet to determine , need to replace the rear brake pads first . But this is the same tire that Iron Mike runs on his bike. He rides with thge same rider group that I do and he loves the tire. Says it handles great and I have followed behind him and watched his tire. Never loses much of the contact patch even in tight corners. Tire never really transfers to the edge . I'll update my exp[experience when I put a few miles on it . Headed to West Virginia in 2 weeks for a weekend of riding , will know after that .
