    The story on Conti tires in the new online RRW mentions Conti's new vintage tires, and they must be brand spanking new-- very little is out there yet on the Internet. Just wondering if anyone has heard anything or even know who will handle them. I need two new sets of KR 164/124's, and I am just wondering about the alternatives.

    There is a discussion regarding them here:

    I've been using Heidenaus this year and I would recommend them. Very good grip, they do move occassionally but it is very progressive and it never feels like they're just going to let go or grip suddenly and high side you, they seem to wear well and the price is pretty good too.

    Dennis Kirk has the ContiRoadAttack 2 Classic Race radial? When I searched the website I came up empty.

    Wayne- call em what you want, yes they are DOT tires. They are not 3 years old by the time you get them either! They are the tires that were on Russells bike, they are the tires Ari Henning used to blister Barber last October to the tune of 146.0xx seconds. I had them on when I won the AHRMA F500 race at Talladega in June also.... they are the real thing... I am not a dealer yet but I will be shortly. We are awaiting some new sizes to be available in the USA.
