hi,

does anyone have any good recommendations for a cross country tyre that will still stand it's ground for a little single track.

For years I have bought Michelin Wildgripper lites, and to be honest have been perfectly happy with them but I fancied a change this time?

Cheers

Alan

Alan I recommend Conti Verticals. They have had great reviews and I use them. Light, tough and good grip without being agricultural and fairly cheap too. Alpine stock them and if i remember the price is about £15.

Hi Dan,

Sounds good, as I said I was happy with the Michelins but definately time for something new. I have had my current tyres for a few years now and I'm scared they are just going to blow out any time.

I'll let you know how I get on.
