Has anyone tried either of the new Continentals? I know from experience they produce excellent car tyres, never ridden a bike on continentals though wouldn't mind knowing if anyone here has ridden on them

I’ve never tried any Continental Tyres. May be next time as I like trying different. Now With my helmet mic I now think I’m some kind of tester, lol. Just put new Power RS on, like them, so it’ll be a while before new boots and I really like these Michelin sporty ones.

Has anyone tried either of the new Continentals? I know from experience they produce excellent car tyres, never ridden a bike on continentals though wouldn't mind knowing if anyone here has ridden on them They're excellent tyres - but the prices aren't as keen as they used to be - they used to be just about as good as anything but only cost 75%, now they are only 15%ish cheaper than the usual suspects - in my eyes I'd just buy the usual suspects unless a bargain is to be had. I am confident you'd be perfectly happy with any Continental tyre but they're not the bargains they once were. The Continentals that are bargains (compared to the direct competition) is their Race Attack trackday biased tyres - genuinely up there with Pirelli V3 supercorsa but £100 cheaper a set.
IMHO The bargain sport touring tyre at the moment is the Maxxis Supermaxx Diamond and the bargain Sport tyre is the Avon 3D Ultrasport.
