Not all of em. The AMA DOT spec tires aren't so good IMO. So how are the US N-Tec's compared the the old UK tires?

I would have to respectfully disagree with you on this, I was running 4 sec off our track record with GPA's on a non setup bike there an amazing tire IMHO.... but again thats just my 2 cents


all Ntec's are UK the only race tire made in the USA is the GP-A ( I believe)
but if you were asking how are the Ntec's compared to the old non Ntec tires, the answer is there night and day... Ntec's don’t grow were as the old slicks could grow 12mm at speed

Maybe I'm confused. I thought these where the US Ntec's.

I used to think so too but the UK won't let the US use the name Ntec and I think the belt design is different as well
