Avon Trailrider Tyres

I used my T100 + AM26's on gravel and dried mud trails and they were excellent.

 

Unless you are on proper knobblies and doing a LOT of off roading the advantage of dual purpose tyres has more to do with aesthetics than performance. Avon quote a 90/10 road to rough usage for the Trail Rider but its wet/dry road performance won’t equal that of AM26/Michelin Pilot Activ which will in turn not quite equal the off road advantage of the Trails.
You just need to be honest with yourself about your riding mix or accept the compromise of looking well ‘ard from the comfort of your waterlogged ditch.

 

I've got them on my GS,good tyres.
Never had any problems with them

 

Thinking of trying these tyres on my scrambler 1200 when the OE tyres have cried enough, they get very good reviews.
I am a fairly fast road rider so thought these open up the road capabilities of the bike.
They have been out a while now anyone that’s used them got any views?

 

After a talk with a nice man at Melksham. Am going to be using them on my Tiger for my 2 months travels outside Europe where the roads are mostly loose gravel. Wet weather road grip is meant to be good but i wouldn't use them in the mud. They're not meant for that.

 

Ok had these Avon trail riders on for a couple of hundred miles now.
They really suit the bike if progressive riding is your thing as it is mine, I have no interest in taking my expensive bike off road!
My confidence in this amazing bike was already high but now it’s off the scale.
Hope they last a reasonable mileage, and feel like they do now when they’re worn.

 

I have had mine for a while now, had no problems with grip on the road in any conditions and they give that extra bit of confidence if there is some shit or gravel on the road or I need to go down a country lane, which is much of my riding living in rural west wales.

The only conditions I have not used them in is in hot dry weather, roll on summer
