Mitts c02

Anyone tried them on x challenge yet.

Used a rear on my KTM 950 Super Enduro.
Great hard wearing tyre for the bigger bikes.
Doesn't really help much talking about the X challenge. Mate of mine uses a pirelli MT43 trials tyre. Seems to handle everything really well and it's only downside is thick deep mud. Even seems hard wearing on the road.

It's the mud round here I need them for! Mitas c15 and ef07 maybe a good option as well? Anyone used them.
Tried mt21 useless in sticky mud but great on gravel my rear has almost gone in 900 miles

Pretty sure that Timpo uses the C02 on the X challenge.
A big lad, AndyC, uses them on his and finds them good.

I've used them on my XR650 (as well as all the other bikes) and found them a great tyre on routes from Bwlch Y Groes to slippy, slimy slate climbs in Devon.

Best part is they last more than twice as long as other knobblies.

Indeed i have.
The first 100 miles or so are critical to the life of the tyre though. Nice and steady on the road, and then you can get up to 3500 miles from a tyre.
In fact, at 3500 miles, the tyre is still good for the Devon trails...... ask Muddymatt!

I was thinking of these tyres on mine. Are you using the 120 rear on yours as i cant find it in a wider size.
Thanks R.B

its alot of tyre for the bm!!! gives great grip in mud
not fantastic in the corners though !!! so remember you will need body english in the bends ,

I'm gonna try a c02 rear think you can get a 130 next my mt21 rear is shot after 1200 miles but on open tracks with moly the mt21 will be better IMHO
