Mike you don't happen to sell them,by any chance.....eh.and here's me thinkin you not supposed to advertise on the forum :whistle: :whistle: :whistle: Al. :)
Yes Al we do sell them, but you'll note that I didn't draw attention to that or even mention it, and they are available all over, but thanks for the advert (thumbs)
I hadn't realised you did tyres Mike. I'll drop you a pm because I need a spare pair to keep at home ready for my winter trip in case it gets a bit nasty.

I can't find the Michelin comp 3 or 6 locally, only the comp 4, is that a comparable tyre?
Although, with the pond strong against the euro, the metzler 6 day extreme is around £40.
There is also an extreme hard, is that just a harder compound rubber?

Comp 4 are really good, bit harder than the 6. Comp 3 are sold by pretty much every enduro/mx/offroad shop in the country though?

The 6 day extreme is a cracking tyre, lasts well in our experience (5 riders). I like the wider front, the extreme hard only comes in 90/90 size for the fronts, and if you use a mich M16 front mousse, its a nicer ride with the standard 6 days extreme in 90/100

Thanks Mike, I appreciate your input on this.
Looks like a Metzler for the front as the price is right.
France is now local so choice can be a bit limited.

Finally got around to trying a Maxxis Maxxcross IT Pro
Hope it’s going to be ok
