For my part, tyre regeneration is a theme I want to take seriously. A tyre is the most critical piece of equipment connecting a rider's life to the road surface, and it wears fast. If performance does not drop with recycled material, the environment and safety can coexist. Whether grip is guaranteed in measured figures is the one thing I want to judge coolly.

No complaints if the performance holds up. Waiting on the data.
