Strengths:    Fast!! Great road feel! Noticeably better durability on the rear tire due to slightly harder rubber being used in the center section. Awesome on clean, dry roads.

Weaknesses:    Not the best grip in the wet, moderate resistance to cuts. Not the best tire for dirty or wet roads.

Bottom Line:   
Very nice tires!! Excellent road feel and VERY fast... Very low rolling resistance. They seem to wear pretty well, and while maybe not the toughest as far as cuts, no flats so far. The center section is slightly harder on the rear tire(Powerlink), and this does translate to noticeably better wear, but there is a bit of a trade-off. On wet or dirty climbs you sacrifice a bit of traction. Nothing scary, and the added durability may be worth it IMO. OK wet grip, but not the best tire I've used in the wet. One of the best tires I have ever used for clean, dry roads. If you race on dirty or wet roads, you may be better off with something like a Conti Comp. Excellent tire, but Im giving at a 4 because its not a do it all tire IMO.
