Norway tyres
Hi,
Off to Norway in July, for two weeks, with lots of off-road, or rather riding the unsealed tracks that abound over there.
Currently my bike has Michelin T66s on, which are definately at the road end of the dual sport spectrum. I would rather not go to the expense of buying new tyres for the sake of a two week holiday but also do not wish my fun to be spoilt for the want of some knobbly rubber.
What do people think? I've been to Norway before and, although I didn't get much chance to off road, the tracks looked rocky and dry, rather than wet and boggy. Would I get away with the T66s or should I bite the bullet?
If I need to get some knobblier tyres can someone reccomend something along the lines of the Continental TKC80 Twinduro but cheaper?
Matt
