    I'll try & get them from the Guy at Freeman's Reach (Richmond NSW) he's an advocate, I'm very pro-Aussie where possible

    Hi , Engineerk9, wondering do you run rimlocks for ur upcoming desert trek?
    Also did you have a chance to try any tyre choice out in sandy stuff?

    No rim locks, the Karoo 3 seemed good enough at 22-25 psi in the desert (l didn't attempt Big Red) with 27-30 on the road, apparently both front & rear rims are too wide for locks (the rear at least) l ran a K60 rear 30psi dirt, 36psi road

    I can't say that my dirt riding skill would notice much difference, l was always concerned with tube "nips" or rolling off the rim

    The Karoo3 was better at 25psi on gravel than 30psi, but got very hot on the road at 25psi
