Thanks to Tony the Tools!

I supervised.....and on one or two occasions I did hold some metal things.

I had no idea what to do with them of course......but Tony got it all sorted!

What do you reckon?

No.....I'll get my moneys worth out of the A41's first......then switch to my usual choice, Metzeler Tourance.

I've had to buy some Tourances, used them a lot on the AT so was a fan of them for a long time. Went over to Avon Storm3D on the Versys, they lasted forever and were good in the wet too and it was only £150 for a pair. Unfortunately although Avon have the size on their website, I couldn't find any places selling the 19 inch diameter front for the 1200. So the Tourances are now sitting in my spare room waiting for the okay to ride anywhere I want and then I shall do so on new tyres with a round profile.

I know they're pretty oldschool these days but they do the job!

And they're now a lot cheaper than these various exotic new adventure tyres they've brought out.

Noo......I did, rear tyre was buggered, and the inner tube was punctured too, needed a tyre, it just ended up being a Bridgestone.

 

Why didn't you get a Tourance?

Tony the tools is not very colour co-ordinated to your bike

He's English Bob (Bournemouth) so he's not going to have the same sense of style as us Welsh boys! :classic_laugh:

Tourances are at the lower end of the price scale these days though.

have you checked out cats paws (the tread is like that of a cats foot)
