Bullshit. Both my Corsa III's and my PP's on the 1125 got broke in with weather in the 20's!

Never had a slip out of either one, and I pushed them far harder than I should have.

Here is a pic of the first ride on my PP's. Yes that's snow. Yes those are snowmobile tracks in the gravel.
In fact, I raced a sled that was in the ditch right before this... I won.

The pilot powers seemed to do rather well in the cold as did the original pilot roads. At least for me they did.

All I can go off of is my own experience. Maybe your bike isn't powerful enough to break the tires loose. It is a 600 class bike after all. My BT016's slipped all the time when it was that cold. PP's were much better in the cold but those were also on a less powerful bike.

I've spun up the rear on my 675 on BT016s. I don't really ride in anything y'all would call "cold"

My 015 would spin in a straight line at 75mph when it was just past the wear bars, in September.

Now I have a Dunlop Qualifier and it has much better traction.
