1) Pirelli Sport Demon.
The stock Metzelers on my 2011 V7C only lasted 4600 miles. They're being replaced with a set of Sport Demons as we speak. Do you guys always replace the tubes too?
Bumping...loved my Sport Demons, but seriously considering the Michelin Pilot Activs to replace them...think I can get a couple thousand more miles out of them? Mor like 6-8 rear instead of 4-5???Any experience?
1) Pirelli Sport Demon.2) Michelin Pilot Activ.
My Sport Demons are shot at 4300 miles, almost all commuting. I'm looking for longer lasting as handling isn't a top concern.
The Michelins are VERY near to the Pirellis concerning grip, but will last 2-3 times longer.
Encouraging report!!! Will likely try one soon. ;-T
I got about 8 Ks out of my last two Demons. I like the tire too much to part ways with it, though Anders' report is most interesting!
Well, I do understand cause I definitely like the Demons.But If I can't get a year out of a tire, when it's on one of the 3 bikes that I ride, then I might not be able to live with that.I can at least try the Michelin and I can always go back to the Demon if that doesn't give me enough grip. But considering I like Metzeler 880s, I can't imagine the Pilot Activ would be a problem for me.
Well, Anders' reports tend to be quite accurate so it might definately be worth giving the Michelins a try, though Anders does ride that slow Red Breva. Those were the slowest, weren't they? ~;
I'll give them a try. Just ordered Pilot Active's for the Stone from Bike Bandit. $227.00 delivered.
