    Tyre replacement advice - Karoo 3??

    Consider the Dunlop Trailmax Mission. New on the market, some good specials on at the moment. 50/50 road/offroad bias

    New front tyre

    No. Bikers Warehouse, Malibongwe drive in Randburg. R2,700 for the set, excluding the cost for fitting and balancing

    New front tyre

    I have just fitted, front and rear, but only ridden 5km. Will let you know. The special they have on at the moment only allows you to buy a set, front and rear. I took my Karoo 3 off the front and stored it for later.
