AJJ Posted July 18, 2020 Report Share Posted July 18, 2020 What rear trials tyre would you recommend for muddy hills / bogs. I currently have a Michelin x11 on and needs changed so I was looking at the Dunlop d803 or Michelin X-light tyres would appreciate your opinions and how long they have lasted. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyc21 Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 I have had good luck with Dunlop's and Michelin's in the mud myself. But seem to recall people saying that IRC's are good in the mud, though I have never tried them. I personally think the Michelin's are best over all so run them as my first choice, but with them being hard to get here in the US as of late I have been running Dunlops a lot as of late. My mind is that just a new tire is the best for helping in muddy conditions myself as it has a sharper edge profile but I admit I only ride middle of the pack skill wise so take this all with a grain of sand. Good luck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJJ Posted July 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 I have heard that the irc looses air quite often when hitting rocks etc which I do, that’s my only down put about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRS Fan Posted July 20, 2020 Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 I have heard about this fix from a number of people - apparently it works, although it sounds a bit iffy - and would need some care with the tyre levers when fitting the tyre. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guy53 Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 This morning, there's a brand new Dunlop GP 803 on my ST 250, it's not the first one I ride. I like the overall performance of the Dunlop. I ride in the mountain a lot more than competing. Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTBen Posted August 6, 2020 Report Share Posted August 6, 2020 Hi all, new member here. I run a tyre shop and can tell you the D803 is a popular choice. https://twotyres.co.uk/product/4157/ Availability a bit thin at the moment but we have them in stock, lockdown is causing a lot of issues!
