Don't hesitate to try them next time Gilles ,
Bridgestone has tried really hard entry to the hard 'trail bike tyres competition' .The A 40 can not be compared with the ancient Bridgestone battle wing 501-502 . My personal opinion so far allows me tell you that im feeling very 'confident' whenever i enter in a twisty road , John Fogerty (old men down the road) plays loud at my mb3 while my Dero dance smoothly to the curves !
Greetings
