I've been searching for a Metz ME880 in a 110/90-19 for my gals bike. I have only found them in a bias ply. Is it ok to run a bias front with a radial rear? I've always been told not to mix them on cages. She's decided to go DARKSIDE on the rear, and it will be a radial tire. Do I need to find a lesser brand of radial to go on the front of her Shadow, and if so, any good suggestions for grip and wear? Thanks, Randy
