XT600E what road tyre?
Hi
What cheap hard wearing (sort of like BT45s but BT45s are tubeless) road tyres do you guys recommend for an XT600E? , in that we need to cross Europe first which is a good 3000 miles and roads are known to annilate knobblies.
I currently have a set of Conti TK80s which are as fair as I can tell barely run in and I intend to change tyres over once I get to Turkey ,to proper knobblies and change them back to road tyres exiting Kazahkstan then change them to knobbles,
I have space for 3 rears (one already on the bike) and 2 fronts (one on the bike again)...
Or is there a tyre out there that can take both the road and the mud/sand gravel?.
X2 sets of TK80s? , will that work?.
Also I am bringing X3 tyre repair kits , in that each set has 6 patches (3 big 3 small) to give me 18 possible repairs , and 3 tubes for front and rear. My wing man is bringing the same. thus allowing a possible 22 punctures each before we are in trouble.
Is that enough?.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.
