Playing tire roulette with tire size.
« on: September 09, 2020, 07:42:22 PM »
I went with a set of Pirelli Angels on the Majesty, no problem. I wanted to try a set of Metzler Feelfree on the Orange (Xicting 250).  They make a 120/70R-15 and a 150/70-14 bias. No 120/70-15 bias or no 150/70R-14.

Since the Orange won't be rode much might just put on some cheap tires and be done with it. Since I ride so many different scooters they will age out before they wear out. Might be time to try a pair of Shinko's.

R= radial, or reinforced?

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.

Radial,  the front size is a radial and the back size is a bias ply.  I would like to try a set of Radials on a scooter.
