Went for a spin on pretty damp roads and they seem pretty grippy. When they wear out I'll look at the Conti's as they seem a popular choice. Thanks for all your comments guys.
I must agree that the racemans and the weathermans are grippy,i liked them a lot until my return from Kelso.The outer walls on the raceman bulged that much that it's wrecked my rim and hub.Luckilt I stopped when I noticed the turbulence.I'd been sat at 70mph,so it could of been much worse.Had weathermans on the p2 and last week decided to strip and paint my rims.Had to get a garage to remove the tyres as they were that stuck on.The front tyre worried me terribly as the tread blocks in the centre had all started to crack and showing signs of lifting/peeling off.It had done 8oo mile on the front.Have now binned all SCHWALBE tyres and will never,ever trust the brand again.I've now chosen conti twist sport for the p2 and Heidenau k61 for the AF ts1.Hope I get it right this time. :(
