Recieved my new Touraces from the french half of the 'Sticky' tyre supplies (140euros the pair including delivery) last week the local 'Roady' (French halfords) fitted em for a bargain 10 euros the pair (lose wheels).
Scrubed them in and thanks to the Capt for the recomendation as they perform very nicely 4.5/5 on dry tarmac 3.5/5 on dry trails havent tried the wet yet tho cos it hasnt rained for ages.

Glad to have been of help :blob9:

As I say, these touraces are pretty good, but a little bit iffy in the wet (3/5), but maybe thats just my dodgy riding? Has anyone else experienced slightly slide happy block tread tires (in the wet), or is it just me?

C'est toi, mon ami, je pense. :057:

Oui, peut-etre j'ai un petit problem avec l'accelerateur quand il fait pleut!

Continental Escape's
 
I've recently fitted Continental Escapes, equal to Siracs in the dry, I don't push it in the wet so I can't comment on comparisons with the Siracs. On cost I found the Conti's to be slightly cheaper than the Avons.
