On Psychobike the guys are giving good reports. I have one but have not mounted it yet. It feels really soft so I would say it won't last very long on the street.

i have a friend who just got one. He got it mounted and burned the new stuff off of it. He said the bike started jumping forward as he spun it. I felt it when he came to my house. Its the softest tire ive felt so far. I have a new power race and decided to sell it. The tire has almost no curve to it. Its pretty flat. Dont know how long it will last. Most soft tires like this go quick. I will find out soon. My friend went through a power race in a wk. Hes hard on tires. The tire felt like it had 20pd in it. So i cked it and found 45pd. I will be getting one to try.

local shop sells tires for half price all tires, but race tires so slicks and power race are still full price

I want to sell mine but I don't want to lose money. I paid 160 shipped but that bastard was on backorder so long I had to buy a Michelin P1. If any body wants it $160 plus shipping BTW, I am in Florida.

Come on Rick, maybe you should try a new tire. Remember you posted your 1.50 60ft buddy. This tire could be the ticket

the old one works damn good for me but for as cheap as i get them i thought i would try it out maybe a little less weight and alot more air pressure in the tire will give a couple of MPH but who knows, if i dont like them ill go back to the 003 u soft or maybe even try out the 008 slick

I just ordered one from Bike Bandit.com. Being an AMA member gets you a discount. so I paid like $130 to my door. Love my Power One, just wanted to see what the new Shinko would do and how long its gonna last on the track.
The Power One is pricey...but its very hard to beat its performance.

Looks a lot softer than the old tire!
