I checked Derby Cycles and they are pricing the 120/70ZR17 Pilot Pure for 107.99 and you pay shipping. I sell mine for $114.95 with free shipping. The only way they could beat my price is to ship the tire for for $6.00 or less and that is not possible.
Their site and I am sure they are great people doesn't give you a total price until you go to the shopping cart and fill in all of your info. Which is the same as our website.
You can always call us for your best price on anything and buy it over the phone rather through the shopping cart if you prefer.
To each his own though, I am just trying to help you guys out

I got the Angel ST's from Motorcycle super store. I got about 300 miles on them and I am loving them. My worn out Pirelli Stradas were way over due and now it feels like a new bike again. I paid a little more than 229, I guess I should have waited... Still, I feel it was a good value.

Hang on now.........let's compare apples to apples.
I priced 2CT's compared to your quote on 2CT's....and you are talking Pure's in this reply. Your price as you posted is below.
"2CT'S 120/70 & 180/55 $215.95 FREE SHIPPING / 120/70 & 190/50 240.95 free shipping"
Derby Cycles has them for 239.98 shipped. Now that sure isn't a lot of difference.......and I am sure you are good people too. But you are not cheaper than anyone else. Those guys are one of the largest Michelin dealers in the country. They ship pallet loads of Michelin's weekly.......Parts Unlimited and Western Power Sports have tried several times to get Derby's business on Michelins but can't match the price they buy them for. That's pretty strong purchasing power when those two huge distributors can't match or beat the dealer's current purchace price.
The good thing about all this bantering is when Michelin cut it's price's a while back it makes buying high quality tires much more affordable for all us sport bike and sport touring riders. Your prices are great and I hope you sell a bunch...........
