Hello Bob,
I have been using ContiGo 2.75x18 & 3.00x18 on my Mach1. Fantastic tyre here in California, they are a modern Hi performance tyre so not good in the rain.
Good day

Hi Alno, Rain?, It snowed today, and then happily it rained and washed away the snow and rock salt. All weather tyres are essential here if you intend to ride the thing.----Snowing hard again, no ride today.

Hi Bevelbob,
I have Metzler Me22's on my 250 and have never had any nasty moments. They are so cheap I bought a spare set in case of a price rise after Br*x*t!

Hi, I have got the me22's and they look fine, they are the universal type so i presume they can fit front or rear, don't know if it matters which way round. Only rated to 93mph so will just have to take it easy! . What pressures do you use? recently had the bike weighed 65KG on the rear 55KG on the front plus my slim athletic ! 12 stone to share out. Think 28psi both??. Have been trying to contact BOBT in france as I have some info on his MK3 narrow case , perhaps if he reads this he will post?.
