Strengths and weaknesses
A budget-friendly knobby for large adventure bikes.
Where it's good
- Owners appreciate the large block contact patches, which provide good dry road stability and solid traction on rocky trails and gravel.
Where it falls short
- Riders report that the soft compound results in rapid rear tyre wear under powerful 1000cc+ adventure twins.
Based on aggregated owner feedback and independent tyre reviews, not a single source.
Holloway ratings
Seven separate scores, not one blended number, since a tyre that's brilliant in mud can be miserable on a wet motorway link, and vice versa.

Matched on the bike's standard tyre sizes only. Some model years and trim levels use different sizes, so check your sidewall or handbook first. Our size list for this tyre can miss sizes, so a bike shown for one end may still find its other size in the maker's chart.
Remember: a tyre's real character also depends on how worn it is, what pressure it's run at, and the bike it's fitted to. A great green-lane tyre on the wrong pressure, or worn past its best, can behave nothing like its rating suggests. Check the lane's own hazards and current conditions before you go, not just a tyre score.
