PR 4 GT wearing quickly?

You'd better put some new tyres on though Notty, they're probably still the originals!!   023's?

You wish, the originals were 020s. Which were at least better than the 021s they got replaced by.

Got new Pr4 as the 020 had gone off  ( 12 years and a massive 4k )

Never used the PR4GT but 3 sets of PR4's all doing around 13-15 thousand kms.
Do you really need to be running GT's ? Mostly I run 36 fr 38r
I know KC runs GT's but he would be one of the biggest blokes I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. Sorry Col but you make a 14 look like a 250 !!
I'm on Road 5's now and liking them. Done over 14th kms and still looking fine.

That's not dirt Barmy, its camouflage !!

I'd say running GTs is a good idea. I get 6-7k out of PR4 GTs, I got a plain PR4 fitted in Switzerland last year as they had no GTs, it barely make 4k ridden in the same way.

Yeah I do a bit, admittedly & unfortunately.   I've seen a couple of pics of me on it riding, & you'd think it's been photoshopped, but nah.  Shame really, as I don't feel too big for it.  Need a rocket 3 I think - or a wing.

Ill post that im really annoyed with my rear Angel. I must be doing something wrong. Front expired at 19th ks. My stupid rear just keeps going, just about to click 24 th ks. I try so hard lately to wear it out. Scared to go for long ride, just in case laminate comes thru. Amazing, sure is. Never had a tyre last as long. Im not skinny, 85 kgs, used two up as well. Still feels perfect, maybe a burnout is needed, just a huge smoke up, post pic and then a new one. Amazing tyre.

I'm thinking Angels next as I've a mate in the Alps who swears by them for long life & grip in hot weather.

I'll be very interested to see how you get on with Pirelli Angel's as you've used the Michelin's for a while and you use your bike a lot so can give some really good feed back.

[Hooli]

I'll let you know in about 4k, as that's what left on my rear currently.

[Kiwifruit]

Like you Hooli l will most likely try a set of the new Pirellis next.
Just because l can.
Might as well sell why other rate them so highly.

I've had PR4s delaminate in high temps before & it seems not that uncommon on the net. That's my main reason for trying others.
