These RE050s had good feedback, gripped well in the dry, bit dodgy in the wet.
Seem to be wearing quite quickly with the rears nearly dead, though I am putting a lot of power down!

Seem to have all the usual Bridgestone traits.
They're great in the dry, not so great in the wet, wear ok and give you great feedback.
Might try a set of S03's next.

The sidewalls seem a fair bit softer than the RE040 which means you lose a slight amount of feel, this is still a very good tyre for feedback though. They seem very bit as grippy and progressive as the 040 with the added bonus they don't take as long to warm up!
