You are a very wise man David. I agree. Not only can you not judge a tire
by the mags, but most often you can't really judge them by others results,
since ridings styles, road surfaces, speed/distance all play such an
integral part in the overall performance. It's really a matter of trial and
error for all of us. I personally find the Bridgestone 020 to fit my
style/road/speed/variables, the best. This after 37K on this particular
bike/type and numerous tires (Bridgestone/Dunlop....ect....) BUT...
Different bike, different rider, different area..............very different
results.
