I have had some similar scary moments on the Tourances.

I find them especially bad on any damp surface.

Just with the bl**dy things would hurry up & wear out so I can justify replacing them!

Which brings me to my next question.....

I have a second set of rims with D606s on for dirt & offroad work, so what would be a decent DS/Adventure tyre for mainly commuting to work, the odd road fang & occasional gravel road trip? Everyone has their own theory on it, from Pirelli to Conti Escape to Heidenhau.

What do you guys reckon? Cheers, Boneman
