Man you will hate that shinko tire...really. Do yourself a favor and get something that isn't rock hard. They last forever but are severely limiting in what the bike can do.
Excellent work tho. Swinger looks good

Delivers track performance on and off the track.

Profiles and structures set the new benchmark of the segment ensuring high support while leaning and fast stand up while accelerating out of the corner.
Pirelli patented EPT (Enhanced Patch Technology) matched with a three zone compound on the rear, optimizes the contact patch for the best grip on road and racetrack.

Pure racetrack performance combined with the comfort and predictability you expect from a high-performance street tire.

Continues with the aggressive Rosso tread design.

I've found the Q2's to be very robust & a great value. Got my past two sets for $200 (+tax).

Seeing as how at least two track schools use the Q2, I'd say they're acceptable. ;-)

In my own experience, I've found them to be great performers.
