Michy Trakkers unreal
Just hanged to these and for a road legal tyre I find their off road capabilities unreal, most trust worthy front tyre I've had in a long time!!
Michelin Tracker
Bought these for my sons old XR Honda trail bike, suitable for general trail riding and fire trails. My only complaint is that they are a bit hard to fit and seemed to need a fair bit of pressure to seat the tyre on the bead even using tyre paste. Needs a thin ring to be moulded into the tyre a few millimeters outside the bead so you can see that it has actually seated evenly on the bead.
Best all round dot tyres
Of all the DOT approved enduro tyres, these are by far the best. They are a worthy successor to the Comp IV front and AC10 rear combo.
Bazza
Simply love the overall multi terrain types it tackles on my Trail bike. I'm not racing and ride in different areas. So want and expectation on all surfaces.
Tough tyres
Strong sidewalls and durable. Great tread pattern for precise steering.
Superb DOT approved Off-Road Tire
I have used these tires for 15 months and 18,000 kilometers of trails. From hard enduro to motocross to street, these tires did it all. I still run the front Tracker with the Enduro Mediums or any other rear tire because it works and tracks. The rear tire is very good, but will slide laterally on side hills or slick stuff. Offset the rear center lugs a little and problem solved.
Very disappointing
Have only done roughly 250km on 17psi front and rear on gravel roads and Sandy tracks. Already the knobs have been ripped and worn down to about half tread. Won't be buying these ever again
Very good for a hobby rider
Very good tyres for a hobby enduro rider. Grip more than decent overall. Especially grip on wet mud is surprisingly good. Only on wet rocky surfaces it's not very good, but not too bad either. Handling is definitely confidence inspiring. Lasts better than FIM tyres and the characteristics are more linear throughout the tyre life. Need very low pressures to work properly. Decent even on tarmac, but if you don't intend to stay on trails most of the time, get something else. 690, almost exclusively off road.
