I just got my new RoadAttacks this afternoon. I put about 55 miles on them riding home to give them a little break in. First impressions are that they definitely turn in faster than the Bridgestones. They also seem to have a bit less rolling resistance even though the pressures are slightly lower. I'm really happy at the moment, but will add more info as I use them a bit more.

I'll post pics later tonight.

Oh, I got 90 degree valves as well since I got tired of fighting with trying to check the pressures and put air in.

Nice one mate,

I like the idea of 90 degree valves.

Here's a closeup of the tread.



And the 90-degree valve.



I've got one more but I have to fix the plate before I can post it.

Re: Conti RoadAttack

Em...its quite possible that i've now gotten about 6,000 km out of my tyre now...and there should be some distance left in them. I do see them starting to square up but until it becomes an issue i'll keep riding with them on.

They're certainly softer then stock but they really are not that bad...and at the price they go for...its not something to worry about!

Re: Conti RoadAttack

The couriers in London seem to use them a lot so they must last.

Here's the last pic. They look sweet if I do say so myself.
