I have tried Bridgestone Trailwings, Battlewings and Metz Tourances. I was happier on the Metzlers. Also, I am OK with adventure type tyres, they have never let me down and you do have an added advantage that gravel etc poses no problems. I ride alot on B roads and single track roads around Wiltshire, the south and the west country.
I know folks like to put road tyres on these bikes, but this does restrict you to road only.
If buying today, I would say Tourance - I had Tourance rear and TW front and all was OK. I have to say that I thought the TW front tyre to be very good indeed.
Hope this helps................Steve
