Motoz has a new tire out and all reports is it rocks for out NW/NE conditions. As in one of the best. Good friend and A class enduro rider has been doing testing and says these are going to be the next best thing. i have a front one here i am about to spoon on and test. the Enduro I/t is is replacing was real good and has over 900 miles on it ! That's about 300 more than i usually run fronts and it is still good and will go on my DS bike. Amazing. So here is the info. We should have these in a few weeks.
Kelly, what sizes do they come in and what are the retail prices? I am going to skin my Wr250 over winter. I am happy with my S12 rear but Michellin stock front terrible. I was a long time Trelleborg user and these look as good as gets! I may be up to trying a set. I need soft to intermediate. some times muddy , rocky, rooty tooty and dry hard pack. Typpyt
110-130/18 and a 21. My discounted prices are about $55 front and $70 rear depending on size. Tracula or these S/T's are what you want. I like the Traculas way better than the S12 but then again I am not in love with the S12 like a lot of folks.
Kelly, Heck, is that all they run, for some reason I thought these tires were big bucks ($100+). I'll definately be buying them from you!
We discount them a little off retail but yes, they are relatively inexpensive. No more than Dunlops and less than Mich's
the tractionators dont seem to do that well over here.. most of us love the 403/404 combo and 603 for the longer life...mate had one of these on his drz and was falling to pieces in 2 rides ! qld has a lot of rocky/small boulder stuff and serious mud holes in summer in places and the tractionator hasnt done too well...may be different terrain over there ? more lush/softer surfaces where it can be good ?
I have been truly impressed by the tractionators we bought from Kelly. I've ridden them in everything from fixed rock, loose boulders, deep sand (work really well here), water, mud slime on top of hard pack (worked worst here - but does anything work on this? lol) and even put probably 100 miles of asphalt on them. Oh, and they've been on since May or so, with a whole 3/4 of a cross country race season on them. And I'm still using them. I have one chunk out of a side knob and the knobs probably are 50-60% worn from new height. Very impressed. I'm curious about this new model of tire, but am so enamored by the XT that its hard to imagine changing.
I'm VERY surprised it is falling apart are two rides. I have found these tires to be more durable than anything else. The Tractionator X-cir works WAY better mounted backwards for some reason. Its a very good intermediate tire but does not do super good in mud. The Tracula, S/T and Terrapactor do very well in mud. Good feedback all the same though. Funny it does not work well there as they are designed there!
yeah weird.. made in same place as yours ? possibly different factory ? who knows... and yeah, hus were missing chunks and the likes.. od a search on DBW for tractionators.. seem to get eaten ! glad you like them and to have a tyre that lasts well is great ! i get possibly 400 miles from my 403 ! and its almost useless on the serious stuff here ! .. great on loamy sandy runs..
