Always used High Rollers but now front is worn out I'm thinking of looking for a more rounded tyre to try and lose the big vague feeling section on more upright corners - will the purgatory do this without sacrificing too much grip once you are properly lent over? Recently massively improved my confidence when 'carving' so don't want to lose this with a tyre that isn't up to the job. Found some old threads where a lot of people use Butchers on the front, but said they may be a little OTT.
Newish rear tyre is a ground control, much more fun than old HR with the added drifting.
