Sports: Re: [DucatiST] ST Angles wear rate.

I've always been real happy with the Bridgestones on my bikes. I've done the sporty to the sport tour and in general, I go with the sport tour rubber...BT-020 or what ever sequence they're in now. I get good grip and good mileage. The mileage that y'all are mentioning is unacceptable in my book, especially for a sport tour bike.

The 'stones give me good traction and equal wear across the cross section of the tire. Of course where I live in the flat Gulf Coast plains of Texas, curves are as rare as chicken lips and the cops are as common as mosquitos.

+1 Robert. I have the Angels front and rear. Originally I was impressed, but now I am losing the faith. My rear is wearing quickly, and my front it cupped bad enough to want a new one. I can't remember the mileage I have on the front, but its only a few thousand. I got way better mileage/wear out of the Diablo Strada. My next tire is going to be the PR 2.
