Hey
I am sure this has been asked as many times as, What lights, but here it goes.
I want some tyres that wear well on tarmac, not nobby nics as tried and they wore within a couple months.
I was looking at something like the speed kings or race kings, but good enough for afan or cwmcarn.
I dont want to spend 60.00 for them to wear like the nics.
Would like something in like a 2.2 or 2.3
Nice 1

if you want a road tyre get a road tyre
if you want an offroader get one
ones designed for both dor do as well
all i can suggest is the maxxis highroller as i used it for offroad and on road when my budget was low it held up for the 8 months i had it and my mate now has them and they are fine
get a set of : http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Mode ... elID=18836
for on road
and a set of these for offroad : http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Mode ... elID=18479
and will be less than 60 notes0 -

I cant get one for road and one for off.
Some of my route is through a trail and some road, taff trail ect.
How do the high rollers compair to panaracer fire's as I have them now, and find them ok, but feel I could get faster.

How about the new Maxxis Aspen?
See review below, these are now fitted as standard on the new Whyte 905 trail bike, look really good too.
