    As above. Anyone got any experience of both tyres. I currently have s23s on. They have done 2.5k, 2 tds and 1 evening td. They need changing but don't know if power 6 would be better in cold and wet or if I'm just better staying with the s23s.

    I've got a set of Power 6 and feel like they're a decent step up from the S22's they replaced. Suspect there's very little to separate the Power 6s from the S23's though.

    Power GP 2's are really good for TDs with some summer road riding inbetween.

    Used the old power gps and they were awesome in summer, not so great in 2c wet weather lol.

    From what I can gather power 6s slightly better in cold and wet, s23s are better in summer and trackdays. I can vouch for trackdays as had no problems keeping up with my mates trackbikes on slicks on the s23

    That's more of an indictment of your mates riding :D.

    I've used Metzeler and Pirelli over the years but have kept on S21 and 22 in the last 3 or 4 years. I love them when fresh but found that when they start to go off they go off fast. Probably my riding style. :oops:
    I was thinking of Power 6's next.

    I liked the s22s but only managed about 1500/2000 miles on a set. The s23s have done better but just wonder if power 6s will be better for the next few months and mileage wise

    Have a look on two tyres and openeo, both are very competitive
