MusCat Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 My 60 profile A021s lasted about 4,000 miles on a similar regime. I switched to A539s which last forever (4 years so far) but I use A021s for the track. I think 70 profile last longer but you'll get thru' a set per year. They also tend to overheat on trackdays – I’ve only got 135bhp and they suffer - as I been told they are designed as wet weather track tyres. But they are a good all rounder.

Eugene Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 I use 021s at 70 profile - have done for years. Get over a years use of touring, etc., no problem.

Eugene Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 The7 Workshop, as Chris gets most of my stuff for Eugene, but you can get them direct from Polley's... Small Boy - with Loud Toy!

Myles Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Another vote for 21s. Jonathan Rarity (tourer and hillclimb champ) uses the 70-profile for touring for the extra ground clearance. My BEC came with 21s but has a flush underside (dry-sumped Blackbird) - so I'll stick with 60s 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 Alcester Racing 7s Ecosse™ 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 Alcester-Racing-Sevens.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokko Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Would be happy with my A539's but for the fact that they are only available in 60 profile - constant worry about catching the sump when 2 up with a weeks worth of kit in the boot / SBFS RE Bag. Doing a Scotland tour later in the year and I think I'll either go for A021's or maybe look at getting adjustable collars fitted to the suspension to get back a bit of ride height. -----Steve - Orange and Black ex Academy - Lotus Seven Club Blatchatters Bike and Hike Team Member Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
