Nah either the guy at cyclespot with 4? NC30s or Kwaka Kid who has about the same in various bit would be the local V4 crazies! No 17's though.

Whats wrong with the 18 anyway? there is plenty of rubber about for it!

Yeah true, if you are thinking of replacing it for a greater selection of tyres, perhaps don't bother. I swear by my Bridgestone BT-090 tyres. You can get them in an 18" rear. They are the shit, good wet or dry, turn quick and massive amounts of grip. Huge.

Others swear by the Dunlop GPR70 (?). Or it's successor, whatever that is.

Both tyres are designed for our lighter bikes.
