RE: [ST] Tire question

>(Is anyone running Metzlers?)

Yeap, MEZ3 on the front and the Z4 for the rear.  Purely a trade off of
traction vs wear on the front tire.  I get 5k on both front and back, mostly
spirited riding.  Even wear, good traction, no cupping, predictable, don't
stand up mid corner, great in the rain, blah, blah, blah.  I like Metzelers,
ALOT.  Much better than the BT020's that came on the bike.  Probably
couldn't tell a difference between other tires, but I wouldn't have the
confidence with any but this combo.
