I was torn about these or the Vorti R's after reading the reviews i would of gone for the Cup 2's in an instant if i didnt do so many miles. Plus the price difference per corner is around £100!!

ok i'm almost set on Tarox Strada pads for the front and rear after reading reviews. But i'm guessing these wont come up wear indicators. what have other people done with the sensors to stop the lights coming on?

look out for a candy white (very dirty at the moment) R around town. Give us a wave
