Review: Perfect fit - Great tyre, whipped it on asap, performance was bang on, thanks a million...👍
Review: Cant go wrong - The tread is perfect for road, trail and mild off road!!!! I normally purchase the re-enforced version at double the price for much longer lasting usage, but I just needed a get out of jail quick card, so order one of these in emergency, works just fine, although I will upgrade again once I get back in order and hit any harder riding!!!
