There isn't just a "Power". That's only half the name. The "Power" Series basically now has the Pilot Power, Pilot Power 2CT, Power Pure, and Power One.

That is a Power One (Marketed as Race). Some (like Rez) say to go with the dual compound 2CT..and I admit I too had this dilemma..I went with good ole soft and sticky single compound Pilot powers and wouldnt have changed it (check prices, BOTH are good tires!)

I wouldnt go with a race though as pictured above...but again I guess it depends on what your using the bike for brah! ; )
