Morning all. I know this has been asked before, but what tyre should I put on the front before riding up from Durban to Alfie Cox festival tomorrow. I am fitting a 130 x 18 EO 7 on the back.
I have actually been very happy with the standard Dunlop K850 A, but she is now shot after 9000kms.
Apparently they are not available anywhere in the Durban area????
So I am looking for something similar in handling that will hopefully give me decent kilometerage and not break the bank!
My riding is 70% dirt and 30% tar, with occasional singletrack. I'm not too keen for a full out knobbly, as they feel kak on the tar, especially with rainy season on the way.
