New Type of Bridgestones

[David Price]

I see in Bike magazine this month that Bridgestone are releasing a new type of tyre in GS sizes. called a Battle Wing (I kid you not)

It looks slightly more road orientated than my Tourances, without losing the deep tread pattern.

I would have tried a set had it not been that I'd just replaced my Tourances!

The DOT marking is only relevent in the good ol`US of A,anyway.
Nowt to do wiv us over `ere,just like the scare in the 80`s about tyres ( not 'tires' ) marked 'NHS',meaning 'Not Highway Suitable'.
It caused a stir for a while,but wasn`t applicable in the UK.

Interesting - anyone know anything about price or availability/release date?

Here is that page in Googled English for those who dont speak German.

As a native German speaker, this is one of the most terrible googles I've read (babblefish won't be much better)

Offer from me - if in future you need a translation (from GErman, that is), email me and I'll do it properly
