realizations, something I didn't consider when writing my previous post was the fact that I had just gotten my bike back from having the suspension totally re-built by a local pro when I mounted the 180. The bike inspires a lot more confidence now and it could be that I'm taking advantage of the improved handling & cornering ability. In any case, using up all of the tire's footprint didn't cause me any concern as it never felt like I was about to run off the tread. I'm sure I'll be mounting a 180 again; perhaps try some Conti Road Attacks.
