What tyre replaced the Goodyear F1's?
« on: 03 January 2009, 21:56:42 »

In the market for a new tyre or three for the pair of Elites that my family now run.  Previously used and liked the G/Y F1's but appear they are no longer available.

Anyone know what the currrent replacement is?  Seems to be an assymetric of some sort from a quick Google, but open to confirmation....
