Metzeler Tourance or Conti Escape?
With my four year old Avon Distanzia rear tyre now perished to the point of MOT failure (I know, unbelieveable) I am in the market for a new rear tyre.
Am looking at Metzeler Tourance (£68) or Continental Escape for £62.
Tourance seems to be the established daddy of the touring tyre world, but I've never used them myself. Contis seem well liked but I've had a couple of rear TKC-80 failures that makes me suspicious.
Thoughts?
They are for an XT.
Matt
