"First impressions were that this is a very "quiet" tyre: no noise or vibrations. Also very surefooted, nimble and smooth on the transitions from left to right-hand cant. Braking performance is excellent, with no desire whatsoever to want to stand the bike up when braking into a corner."
Above quoted from Hitcher's post in August 2007. Expresses perfectly what I thought.

Had the first decent run on the new hoops this morning...long sweepies for today.
It's like riding a different bike. I still have trouble getting my head round just how much difference these new tyres have made. Compare walking on sharp gravel in bare feet with walking on thick carpet in sheepskin slippers.
The new ones track so much more positively. They are not upset by crappy road surfaces or raised bits where the road has been patched. They transit from one side to the other without any effort. On corners I know well they add 10km/hr to comfortable speeds without even trying. Lean angle just begs to be exploited.
Next run will be over tighter roads so as to push them a little harder.
Can fully recommend PR2's.
