A lot of reviews I’ve seen lately have been praising the newish Dunlop Trailmax mission - apparently Dunlop have been in development with these tyres for a long time.
Even though the tread pattern looks no more aggressive than the TKC 70, they out perform the TKC 80s off road.

They are a bit on the expensive side for me so I went with my usual, cheap mile munching K60s :?

As mentioned in another tyre related post a couple weeks back, I’m currently running an Anakee 2 on the front and an Anakee Adventure on the rear of my Explorer. Works just fine, in fact very well actually, just that I’m not that interested in taking the heavy top heavy Triumph too far off the highway.

The reviews on the Dunlop Trailmax Mission look pretty impressive and I think I will give these a go. Thank you for all the advice! Appreciated!

This is a good review, especially as he's not a tyre salesman!

No - Most of my riding is on Tarmac but I have tried and really enjoyed gravel tracks in the Balkans
