Bridgestone's updated tyre gets treated to a few sunny laps around Brands Hatch Indy Circuit

The Battlax T30 is the new reference for relaxed, touring performance, letting you rediscover the joy of riding. Quick response, tight handling and support for high lean angles make it even easier to hold your line on both wet and dry surfaces.

Visordown review:

The BT-016 Pro replacement aims to deliver more grip and better wet weather performance. So does it live up to the challenge?

Bridgestone badges its new Battlax S20 as a 'premium sports tyre' aimed at sports riders who ride on all types of roads, through all conditions. There are plenty of tyres capable of that but the S20's remit's made wider by the fact Bridgestone rate the S20 as a great choice for those who partake in the occasional trackday.

Rigid Construction  Better contact feel in corners, especially suited for slide control during races All-round Performer Great grip and handling whether wet or dry, maintaining high grip levels. Consistency High grip level from start to finish regardless of the temperature.

Two months ago I had a set of Bridgestone BT-016 Pro’s fitted to my Triumph Speed Triple. Before setting out on the new tyres, the Speed had covered 4000 miles. Now with just over 7000 on the clock the rear tyre is on the limit markers. So, 3000 miles from the rear and the front has at least another 1500 miles in it.

Sticky, super sticky...
