Hi all

I found some good bargains here in greece (summer vacations). Michelin Front S kevlar 2.0 . Is this an all around tire? front and rear use or is it only for front use?

Yep, that's a directional, FRONT, tire. It's also more of a race, than "all-around" type tire, and is about as narrow as anything claiming to be a 2.0.

By "all around" I think you want something durable. That michelin tire is a race tire so it will not last long, as its built for one or two races only
