Hmmm i wouldn't really trust full-on enduro knobblies on the road to be honest - but then if
it's off road grip u are looking for then they would
be perfect - to be honest,if u use the bike a lot
on the road u want a good balance of tyre,trailwing - is that Bridgeston?? just don't stick an Avon gripster on it for off road!!!

when i had my DT 125 i put the cheapest 40/60's (40% road/60% off road) on i could get and they were the muts nuts for hooning around on the road! and if you wanted to take an off road route they were even better!! will try and find old invoice for them and see what they were
