[QUOTE="Patman, post: 692842, member: 16962"] The old style tire has nothing in common with the old "enduro" models except they are black and round. Modern trials tires are VERY good in most conditions I've encountered and offer grip beyond what most people think they look like they would. I've ridden in some seriously slimey conditions expecting to go down and never did, crazy climbs in these same conditions saw me over compensating and actually getting too much traction for what my brain thought possible. Yes this was on a trials bike but keep in mind that only the bottom 3 or 4 gears (5 or 6 speed) are for technical riding the top gears provide PLENTY of speed. I've seen Ray Peters' (national #4) KLX650 that has grind marks on the footpegs from cornering with trials tires on it. He actually prefers them to street treads because of the stupid amount of grip. Once I burn up my Pirelli on my XR284 I will be trying out a Michelin trials tire on it as well. [/QUOTE]
