I just thought it was brilliant . I left Windsor on brand new rubber , and was cags-deep in mischief when the first bends arrived 25km later . I have always trusted Tourances , and that faith has only increased .
How has it been improved ? The new Tourance Next 2 , is just that little bit better than its predecessor , with solid improvements in wet-weather scenarios and the resultant stopping distances . Metzeler ’ s testing showed the Next 2 will pull up onepoint-five-metres better than the Next . I had no way of testing this without scaring people I barely knew , but I ’ m pretty sure Metzeler is not making things up . It does a lot of testing , and it does provide evidence of its claims .
How ’ d it go ? It banged . What can I tell you ? It held the lines I chose , it let me change them without an issue when I realised I was being silly , and it felt planted the length of the Putty – which is no small thing , if you know the road . Superb is a good word , which applies perfectly here .
