I know this seems old but I've been out of the loop. what is chad reed running for tires since he split from Dunlop???
The Shop
I could be wrong though.
If not, it's all a waste in my opinion.
tell falken that their marketing don't work....
With the tires.... I guess my point is this:
Discount sells Dunlops, so to me, unless they plan on selling Pirelli mx tires in store, it's shouldn't matter which brand Chad utilizes. Either way, Discount will sell me a tire from their team sponsorship of Two Two Motorsports. That's why I think it's pointless.... They sell both brands.
If Chad wanted the switch, cool..... If he had a falling out with Dunlop.... Cool. But I just don't see how the switch benefits Discount/America's Tire.
Less they actually sell Pirelli MX tyres then i'm not really phased, granted it's a somewhat different proposition to normal but in this case it's not the product, it's the company that I would choose to support because of their involvement.
Pit Row
Pirelli tires are as good, sometimes better... depending on terrain, as anything-else.
Go talk tires with Andrew Short...he's a Pirelli rider.
Million dollar question, is Discount tire even trying or wanting to sell you a MX tire?
In regards to discount tyre i would hope that anybody with the option to purchase from discount tyres does so to support the industry and justify the investment. People are always complaining about the influence of the energy drinks in the sport, now's the chance with a genuine outside industry sponsor for everyone to do there bit for a company that is supporting the sport. I would if they were here in OZ.
