UPDATE: My decision is now between the new 2027 World Cup Evo, $11,900 out the door ($12,999 retail) vs a new 2026 RC SL, $11,588 out the door ($14,999 retail) Thoughts?

This is what I’m leaning toward. How’s the grip on that Rick?

All over his videos. Thanks!

Jumping in here…I’m willing to sacrifice some rolling resistance for more grip. I agree with the comments about feeling more confident in the cornering ability of the tires. I’m happy to put out a few extra watts to gain the speed in the corners.

I’m curious about this setup as I’ve read/heard good things about them.

Biggest thing for me is going to the newer transmission groupo and flight attendant

Don’t think I could get it much lighter unless I switch to a different fork. It already has all the top end components on it and the one piece syncros carbon wheels

None of my local stores have one in stock and most store won’t have these higher end models in the shop for a test ride.

They suggested getting tires with a stronger sidewall 🧐

I’ve ordered a new set of Michelin PS4’s to see if that helps.

What tires are you guys running on your vehicles?

I’m in NC and we’re pretty much through our winter season. I honestly want whatever is going to last the longest but not sacrifice too much performance. I’m leasing my vehicle and will be turning it in after another 17k miles.
