It is time to replace Neroli's tyres and have another go at replacing the rear tyre on my bike (I split the previous new tyre on its third outing )
Chain Reaction have a bewildering selection - Any suggestions for what tyres we should buy in preparation for the delights of the winter mud?

If found, please return to the pub.
I run Continental Vertical as good all round tyres. probably not the best in mud or dry but according to the mags one of the best compromises.
I am running a UST Conti on the back with only 35psi which has been giving loads of grip - hence claeaning Cwn Carn & the forest. I ran them back & front non UST on the orange and the clear reasonably well.
I did loads of research but its always a compromise unless you carry 2 sets

The response I got to the same question posted to the Bigfoot email list was a resounding - Conti Vertical Pro's.
I have the Conti Gravity ProTections, but don't have the experience to be able to determine how good they are, but I've been told they're not the best on wet, rocky, rooty stuff (what is?). I bought them 'cos the Conti website described them as more of an all round tyre than the Verticals.

It's an ill wind that never blows at all.
