Welcome ...always good to do a service on a new bike..

Tyres are always going to be a personal choice but if your only going to do road miles then I have nothing but praise for Avon Trailriders,standard sizes.

Transformed the handling of both mine and a mates R's.

Hello and welcome.
Tyre wise i use the mita e07 in standard size. Great wear rate on road use,and capable off road.
My friend tried the mita that looks like the tourance but only got 3k from the rear,that's less than half the 07 mileage.

Welcome to the forum! , I personally am more than happy with the road performance of Avon Trekrider's. .. if you never venture off road then the Avon Trail rider is excellent. Steve

I think its sorted fitted new set of Avon Trailriders and balanced wheels correctly, full set of wheel bearings and finally moved the one exhaust pipe of the frame as it was touching, now it runs smooth as silk��

I am one happy bunny!
