anyone have any recommendations for a good replacement tyre for the p700z?
much as i'd like them (better than the re71's on my old '85 ur-q, and when warm
a formidable combination) and would like to continue with them on the ur-q, they
are hard to find and extremely expensive.  has anyone had any experience of 
the a008 vs the dunlop sp8000 vs the newer pirelli's?
