I prefer the Avon Venoms. They have better handling and wet traction in my experience, although they do wear a little faster than Metzlers or Dunlops.

Avon here also. I think they lasted longer. For me anyway!

Running Metzler's for about two years and no issues, smooth ride, clean handling. Can't speak for Avons.

Have run both prefer Avon. (especially after the Brazil Metzler thing.)

Thanks a lot everyone for the opinions...placed my order last night and went with the Avon Venoms! Everything should be here in about 2 weeks, can't wait!!!

Metz or Avon you will be happy. You will notice a big difference from the Dunflops.

When I change tires, Metzlers for me.

We rode on our Avon Venoms to the Czech Republic in June, from our home in the UK, and visited the Budweiser Budvar brewery. Most satisfying! If you want a bit of fun, switch to the Czech language version! Utterly incomprehensible, but lovely beer.
