Reviewer Neil Tomlinson rode 2,800 miles on the tires during a five-month tryout on his Triumph Street Triple bike. Neil also spent three days putting the tires through their paces on tracks at Anglesey in northwest Wales, Cadwell Park in Lincolnshire, England, and Mallory Park, east of Birmingham, England. "After Anglesey, Cadwell and Mallory trackdays and 2,800 miles, they have just about had it," Neil wrote of his experience. "They've given not so much as a slide or a moment to worry me, providing ample grip for the Street Triple in both the wet and the dry. "The front has outlasted the rear and could probably cope with many more miles. High recommended tires," Neil wrote. © 2010 Cooper Tire & Rubber Company Provided by Global Communications
