Bridgestone S20

[KingY]

Hey guys and gals. while at work yesterday i stumbled across Bridgstones new hyper sport tyre which is even better than the BT016 - PRO.

This is the only link i can find now.

Bridgestone Bikers Club

I did find one yesterday showing charts and graphs on how much better these are supposed to be!

Thought i would spread the word as i have no seen any one mention them yet.

Thoughts?

Thanks for the heads up on the S-20.
Took a while for us to get the BT-016-Pro in The US. Europe and Aus. seemed to have them a year or two before we got them. I've always liked Stones!

I love bridgestones after how awesome they performed on my R6 i cant go to any other brand now

Has someone found a decent review of this tyre (so no marketing article ) or a comparison with the other high(er) end tyres (Michelin, Dunlop, ...)??

Grtz,

My front is absolutely shot and with a 1000+ mile trip coming this summer I def need new rubber, stopped in the shop and they had a bt 16 in my size in stock, may get that put on Saturday. Bt 20 sounds good though, wonder when it would hit shelves in USA...

i did find a comparison page again the BT016 pro, but since am unable to find the page.

I have not yet seen any private reviews as they are very new over here in the UK from what i can gather.

Shal see if i can dig up any more information

These tyres have not arrived in Australia as yet.....Mikey (Ozzieboy) was looking to get a set this week, and made enquiries....most of the Tyre shops didnt even know that they existed!!!

My Guess is that Bridgestone will hold off supplying them, until they have got rid of most of their BT016 Pro's, so they dont have to discount the 016's.

Very true, well deponds on the cost difference between these and the BT016 Pro. Looking at UK prices for buying and fitting seems to be quite steep. probably due to how new they are. I am due for some new rubber in a couple of weeks so i will enquire on prices between the both and post up when i find out
