Tyres and Moose

Bought a Rabaconda, a load of tyre levers etc.

Thought I would put a set of Mousses on the bike with a set of AC10 tyres.

3.0 min change as in the video - more like 2hrs.

Anyway have been told that AC10 are not easy to change using tyre levers so what tyres do you recommend that are Mousse friendly and easy to change
and more importantly a decent grip.

Thanks

Mine is great takes a while for getting that time down a little just remember to use lots of lube and tyre paste slips on and off even with tough walled tyres c02s are the worst!!

and the longestest levers you can fine im using 3x35mm

With practise I am now down to 30 mins changing a tyre, but as Finn has already said you need plenty of lube -

Why the fuck would you ever use AC10s they are shite - :nenau

I know very little about offroad tyres so just went with what the guy at the KTM dealer recommended.

Please recommend a good alternative as I am open to and would welcome any advice

I have a KTM 350 EXC-F.

Looking at these next. They look fantastic for off road but how quickly do they wear with road use?
