Why We Like It

• Top speed rating in this range is H (130 mph), so the rating is not the limiting factor on most bikes it fits.
• White wall finish done properly, which is harder to source than it should be for period-correct builds.
• Tubeless throughout the range fewer parts, and a roadside plug is a realistic repair.
