Going for the Angel gt's should I go A spec or standard?

Have had 3 sets PR4's before going to Road 5's all 50 profile as l wanted to compare the 4 and 5 like for like. Will put a 55 on next time just to see.
As Tony says a worn out tyre cannot be compared with a new one. You may as well swap bikes thats the difference a new tyre makes.
Some that like to milk the last kilometre off their old carcass will wish they had put a new tyre on sooner. Just makes for a nicer bike to ride. Safer too.
Another great day on the right side of the grass.😎

Standard is fine on the 14 mate.

I"ve just put a pair of PR4 on. BT021 squared off but got 7k mls from them. Impressed with PR4 so far.
Started out with nothing, still got most of it left.

We have just done 3000 miles in 3 weeks, 2up fully loaded. We went from roscoff (france) down the west coast of France, through the Pyrenees (Amazing roads) down the east coast of spain to the south coast. And back the same route. Front tyre looks nearly new, rear tyre is about half worn. Both are pilot road 4s. Really pleased with them. They felt really stable and gripped like glue. Personally I would recommend them to anyone.
And our trusty 14 performed like a super star not a single hiccup.
DROP A GEAR AND DISSAPPEAR...!!
