I'm in the market for new commuting tyres in the next month or so, on my little Monster M600.

The way in which I use the bike has changed a fair bit recently. I'm doing around 200-250 miles a week, in all weathers, 50% motorway 50% city.

I'm currently on Michelin Pilot Power 2CTs, but want to go for something with longevity.

I know the invariable answer from most will the Pilot Road 4's, which is what I'm leaning towards, but anyone have experience with the Metzler Roadtecs or Pirelli Angels in comparison?

Thanks Tim. I'll discount the Pirellis, my bike is a lot lighter, but the commute sounds very similar.

I think that I may give the Metzler's a go, partly because of the review on here and also as they are currently offering £30 cashback.

The PP 2CT's weren't really a commuter tyre and I got a good fair few miles out of them, so I suspect the Metzlers to be as long lasting if not more so.
