Hi Guys
Recently moved house, my new route it pretty rough ! Even with 32mm's on my Tricross its Rough going ! I had 25mms on but apart from puntures every few days :x it was very unpleasant !
Seeing as my Tricross is my daily year round get to work transport i was thinking up beefing up the tyres and tread ? New route consists of short sections of road,gravel, foot path (complete with broken glass) a farm track huge ruts and boulders. Really im looking for the best off road tyres for my Tricross ?
Regards Joe

I stuck these on my Tricross.

They're brilliant for off road, but the tread will wear down on tarmac. Never punctured once in over two years. Biggest cross tyres you can find.Riding the Etape du Tour for Beating Bowel Cancer - click to donate http://bit.ly/P9eBbM0 -
Why not try to squeeze a skinny 29r mtb tyre into the frame?
something like the maxxis maxlite 290 -
a bit on the expensive side but well worth it, Marathon XR, I've had hell on with 29er tires for over a year, swapped to those and i'm off road and on road, no sign of wear for 5 months and no puncture (touch wood) and increase pressure and i'm out with the road lads.
