Hi to all- I'm going to put my new (to me) Eldorado to it's first big
test this coming weekend. I'll be riding to Red Wing Minnesota for the
AMA Pro National hillclimb. I need to put new tires on before I go. I
want to buy Pirelli tires because of the Italian connection. My
questions: 1. My bike has 110/90-18 front and 120/90-18 on the rear.
Which sizes do you prefer? 2. My Dennis Kirk catalog shows 2 Pirelli
models I'm interested in: Durotour and Strada. The Strada is nicer
looking but the Durotour probably makes more sense. Anyone have any
experience with Pirelli tires?
Thanks guys, Ed in Iowa.
