Metzeler K1

[Ridgeback]

Gone back to a 190 rear and fitted a Racetec in K1 spec. If I only ever use one tyre again in the summer,it'll be these.Awesome.the grip they generate is unbelievable,I have never had so much confidence in throwing a bike around.
Downside is that in race spec K1,as opposed to K2 or 3 they wont be lasting too long,but the grin factor is well worth it in my eyes!

(I can go back to sports tourers in the winter... )

Judging by those chicken strips, I'm sold on the grin factor!

considering to change to metzeler k2 very soon, having used my pirelli dragon sc for about 1 year, travelling more than 10k km..

Lol !
I wish I lived on a roundabout fella,unfortunately I have a 50 mile round trip to work,which like most roads have slightly more straights than bends
and as race rubber gets hot,it picks up all the crap from the road,which is gonna be the centres,not the sidewalls

Funnily enough though,with the 190,it's going to be the same as the others I've had on it
It seems that if you stretch them on the rim,it takes a hell of a lot to get the extreme edges down.Not sure if its because they 'Flatten out'
