Default Continental TKC80's?

Anyone tried the Continental TKC80's yet? They're listed as a 40/60 street/dirt tire and seem to get favorable reviews. Looking for dirt/gravel/mud/tarmac/offroad tire all wrapped in one (round and black) package.

I have looked at them but they are to expensive for my taste. I have noticed that a lot of your bigger adventure/DS bikes use em. I think I am gonna get the Bridgestone TW302 next time around.

Those don't look real aggressive, perhaps the Dunlop 606's would be better for offroad duty.

Yes I'm running the 606 right now on the back, and its great on the trails and mud, yes I have been in mud, I have a brand new set of Kenda K270's at work in the shop, and I'm going to use them, but after that I already know that I'm going to use the 606 again for both front and back. The Dunlop 606 is just a really great, tough tire with a lot of huge *****.

Here's a pic of the differences between the Kenda and the Dunlop tires.

+1 BRYANTJT & DEEJ,

The 606 has been great. Dump some air out in soft sand ( set at 10 to 12 lbs) and it holds pretty well....
