There awsome there all i use. They react well in wet condition they heat up fast but no to soft wear they wear out fast and they dont get flat spots in middle as bad as some others when you ride strait for so long i think all around realy impresssive tire

i just slapped on a pair of Strada's over this past weekend. i've only ridden about 100 miles on them so far, so can't comment on longevity, but they do feel a lot better than the OEM Bridgestones.

Your front tire wears out faster than the rear?
