I'm going to be putting a set of pilot road 3's on my HP4 comp for the street too. Thats how much I like them for all conditions.

Thanks Bender. I do love the canyons, but I really don't ride too aggressive. Entry speed is average, knee dragging maybe, and not too often, if the corner is tight enough, and strong acceleration when exiting, all done very calm, with average heartbeat.
Does it mean I should be extra careful with the Road 3's?

They don't stick like a pure sports tire, but they are good. They are better than a sports tire when cold and way better in the wet. Just get a feel for them, be mature about it and you'll be good.
