Advice & Guides Got a thirst for knowledge that extends to the markings on your bike's tyres? Allow us to quench that for you...
These tyre were a replacement for a Pirelli Scorpion that had seen better days and I have to say I love the Avon Roadrider. Great for commuting and for higher speed / long distance riding, and not to bad on my wallet either.
Tyre as expected from other reviews. Not done many miles yet but so far very happy.
The compound of the Avon Roadrider has been specially formulated to give excellent road holding in both the wet and dry. The actual carcass design gives the tyre a large footprint at all angles instilling confidence in the rider. All Roadriders are V speed rated, that is manufactured for speeds up to 149mph (240kph), further reinforces the tyres high performance credentials.
