Dual Use Tyres

[Obligedkarma]

Hi All,

This is probably a topic that has been discussed time and again however..... I will ask again.

I'm looking for a good dual use tyre for both on & off road due to my nearest trails being a 40 min drive away. I don't want a tyre that will be shredded with this much road use. I have been looking at the Pirelli MT21 Rear, about £70 online + Fitting.

Is there any others that anybody could recommend??

Thanks

Mt21 is a good tyre. You should see a few 1000 miles from it. Not the best grip on the dirt but as good as any other dual use tyre

D606 gives better wear on road

If it's less than a 130 rear, get K60 rear and MT21 front, good combo, and galactic miles.

Thanks for the response guys,

I have looked for the d606 and I can seem to find in the uk, if I type it in Google then a lot of what comes up is a trailmax tyre, I am wondering if this is the latest replacement from Dunlop?! On dunlop's website they also don't do in a 140/40 18, this is off a KTM EXC 450 '08

If the MT21 will give a few thousand miles then this may be the one. I can't see it getting more than 1000 miles per year on it at the moment

If you can get them, Golden Tyre do some good 30/70 and 20/80's, or the Mitas C02 rear and C19 front, bit of a Marmite tyre the C02, I love them, ridden all over on them, but take a while to scrub in, on a 450 they will out last the bike
