am looking for BT090, wat's the price for the tyre... keen to change a new one soon...

[arsonist]

what i meant was which tyre of the two is more longer lasting and more grip? cos bt021 is sport touring tyre and what about m3? is m3 suitable for sport touring? mebe u misunderstand wat i mean by grippy, doesnt have to corner lying down one, just a comparison btwn the 2 tyres.

bro if you find M1, change it. it is good but remember to see the date.. M1 consider quite old model already, M3 replace M1. But i did not use M3 before so no comment on it yet. I am using bt 021 now is quite good in wet and dry weather. i give **** of 5. for M1 i give ****1/2 of 5. bt 021 is for sport touring wearing of is less then M1 or almost the same. Correct me if i am wrong

[arsonist]

should be m1 wear much faster than bt021.

 

btw does anyone know how much hkl sell bt021 frt and rear?

[JbAtRaCeR]

[arsonist]

hey guys u all change wheel bearing how often? change when u change new tyres is it?

[JbAtRaCeR]

Some change when they change their tyres..Its easier remove wheels,change tyres and wheel bearings and balance it.Looking forward to change mine too since my tyres are going "botak" soon.

i changed metzeler sportec m1 at unique, now they have further discount than the price i bought

http://www.singaporebikes.com/forums/showthread.php?t=183191

(but kelvin gave me some discount for other product)

 

their mech will check the wheel bearings upon changing tyre and recommend u to change or leave it.

normally just put the finger in bearings and turn them, if smooth, it's ok. if some bearings are out of alignment, u'll feel it..

 

i've changed both bearings and rear 38$, front 28$ if i'm not wrong.
