Alaska, 30% slow to mid speed in-town riding, 70% trails ranging from damp, to dry, to rocky. I try to avoid the big mud holes and sloppy stuff. Which Motoz Tractionator tire would be best, the IT or the HT? Thanks.
I went with the IT's because they seemed to be more of a all purpose tire. Most of the other Motoz were predominantly soft terrain, but the IT is supposed to be 50/50 soft/hard as well as 50/50 dry/wet which I needed. You might be better off with the HT if you avoid the sloppy stuff.
Im considering giving the IT a try. How do you rate it compared to a Pirelli scorpion? Maxiss? Or whatever you have experience with?
It's hard to say. I've had Scorpions on my CR for the last season and really liked the front. The rear I just changed to a Dunlop because, although it still had decent knobs on it, the traction just disappeared, so we'll see how that goes. For general purpose woods riding, I like the IT's, but prefer the rear to the front. I think the Scorpion front is better. I was going to put IT's on my CR, but after a few bad experiences with the IT front, I decided to try the Dunlop MX52 that everyone is raving about.
