Tyres

Sorry i got the name wrong. You are correct that they are now called Road.
You are the one who started the "hands off handlebars", and i know how to check a bike's tracking and handling capabilities, thank you.
Don’t bite…his posts clearly indicate a wind up merchant. Your post was spot on IMHO.

This is not a wind up but I would be interested to know how you or even others would check tracking easily without taking hands off handlebars..I can only attest to (as in Road 6 posts) I felt I had to constantly counter steer to go straight and then tried hands off on as level as possible road and that's when it pulled to the left. Like I said genuine comment, not a wind up or sleight against anyone.

Meant Dodderz, apologies auto correct and no glasses on
 
My GSA isn’t the most accurate in a straight line when taking hands off the bars. It’s also like you have to lean into the left to keep perfectly upright. But as I don’t do that often it’s not an issue . It rides perfectly well in all other scenarios.

Thanks for all the replies I have a few ideas for my tyres cheers

I have tested the alignment on the bike by hands off bars for a matter of seconds without any issues. The road 6 tyre in my opinion is as good as they come. I appreciate all the comments regarding camber etc and also I was reliably informed that the “throw” of the boxer engine crankshaft can create a slight pull to the left.

I'm sure they are.
I can only tell you what I and others have experienced. Bad batch, maybe, other explanations, possibly.
But I have only had the pulling on the 6
