I also bought the 240's. Talk about supreme confidence in all conditions I have faced this winter! They are very capable winter tires. I just ordered some A10's since the roads have been pretty clear for the last few weeks. But with warmer temps going to start melting some of the snow, I am not ready to go stud-less yet, fearing morning ice. ITs a tough call, A10's, 106's, or schwalb marathons. I will try the A10's on one bike, and keep the 240's on another. Then I will have a good example of the range of studded tire spectrum.
