    Mediocre to bad. I fell for the name and because everyone wears them on scooters. Very mediocre on dry, I don't push them on wet anyway with the scooter. I've had them for 2 years. Wear and tear doesn't concern me anyway, in the 3rd year they need to be changed, they have worn out or not. I didn't buy them for a lifespan of 5-10 years. :D On the next change, I'm going towards Metzeler after I research first from reviews. That's it. ps. Worn on Citycom 300.

    Worn on Piaggio X8 200. Front size 120/70/14, rear 130/70/12. The previous ones were Dunlop Scootsmart which I want to forget. With the Dunlop, the bike reacted nervously, always the pressures given by Piaggio, it slipped easily, in the wet you had to ride as if it were flat, that is, very slowly, in open bends at 60 km/h it felt nervous with a tendency to want to go the other way. Changed tires to Michelin City Grip2 and it was like day and night!!
    Another bike!! I broke them in as the workshop advised me, always the correct pressures, and I was saved!
    In dry conditions, no nervousness at all, in open bends even at 80-90 it sticks. In braking, I have no complaints. A rock. Even in panic braking while standing, it would hardly slip. On provincial winding roads, it will allow you to scrape the double stand even with a passenger.
    On wet pavement, I always ride conservatively so I can't say for sure. One unique time I had to get home quickly due to sudden rain on a provincial road, I didn't go over 70, I didn't push it, but it seemed to hold.
    I am more than satisfied. Kavala is a difficult city with many uphill and downhill roads, and in some neighborhoods like Prof. Ilias, there is a very steep incline, thus putting a lot of strain on the tires.
    When the time comes to change them, I will definitely put them back on with my eyes closed!

    31/10/2024 Update:

    After almost 6500 km on the uphill and downhill roads of Kavala, many of which are steep, and most of the kilometers were done with a double passenger, we are talking about increased strain on the tires. To the point: When you put them on new, everything is fine, of course, they will hold in all the situations you will encounter.
    But what happens when you write a few thousand kilometers? How do they behave over time? Although they still have rubber, they haven't worn out, they started to slip in dry conditions. A few days ago on a ride, I leaned right, not anything extreme, 60-65 km, it slipped on the turn as if I had hit water. There was no water, I was surprised, it slipped and I started to go towards the guardrail. Fortunately, I saved it. This worried me about their lifespan and how dangerous such incidents can become. Above all, our life, our physical integrity, and then everything else. There is no chance I will wear them out first and then change them. It just struck me how after 5000-5500 km they lost their grip performance.
