Anyoe know anywhere that has the new version of this in stock please? Usual Google search brings up the old description and photos of the old version in all the usual places.

New one has green sidewalls rather than central tread...

    After my experience with the last version, I hope they have improved the compound in contact with the road surface - despite fab reviews on this forum, I found them a bit of a disaster, suffering numerous cuts, p***tures, etc. Couldn't wait to rid myself of them, despite good ride quality when road surfaces permitted.

    Have to agree, over rated, apart from the ride quality which is superb, they appear to be more of a foul weather race tire, with wear to match.
    A conti 4 seasons is a far better tire for the UK.

    Which is exactly what they are advertised as...
