Rampant Bath scored four first-half tries as they made light work of a young Leicester side at Welford Road.
A brisk Tigers start and two Johnny McPhillips penalties earned a 6-0 lead, but Bath’s nous and physicality saw them secure a bonus point by the break.
Will Stuart and Tom Dunn bundled over, as did fellow forward Lewis Boyce following Ruaridh McConnochie’s score.
Beno Obano and Tom de Glanville added to the total while Charlie Clare and Luke Wallace went over for Tigers.
