Title: Trials tires
Post by: Rain Man on August 01, 2023, 08:32:22 AM
Anyone running a street legal knobby or trials tire on their 72 six day? Any suggestions on size & brand?
Thankyou

  Search out the posts by Rick bennet on those long rides that he has been making with his small bore Pentons in the last couple of years. He rides the bike to the event on public roads and highways, then rides the event that uses a lot of road, and then rides the bike home again! He has used both 125 Six Days and 100 Berkshire on these rides. I'm pretty sure he doesn't run knobby tires. Rick is President of the POG now so you could contact him directly.

  Type at you later,

Thanks Dan. I ended up going with Kenda Classics as they sell small tires and are DOT rated.
