Uiltjies trip this weekend convinced me I need new tyres, now, asap. After doing a search wrt tyre performance, there has numerous references to having diff tyres on one bike and it somehow assists ur riding style (if I'm getting this right??)

I'm currently communiting to work everday and generally use the bike for everything else too, so tar is very much part of my life. But I'm also very proud to say that I hit the dirt every weekend, and beginning to feel more confortable on dirt too, so I'll prob go more technical as the year wears on. I kinda like the dakar standard tyres, more off road than my metz tourances

So what tyres will suite me and is this different tyre combination a good thing? If so, more off road based on the front and road based on the back, perhaps the other way around??

Any tips will be appreciated.......
