First week in May spent doing a bit of upgrading and maintenance including new front and rear wheels, tyres and mousse's, suspension work, linkage bushes/bearings, oil/filter, handguards, disks/pads etc. (I hate working on bikes)

Hi Phil,

 

Looks great and I really like the wheels, are they lighter than the old ones, also just having had a puncture could you keep us updated on the mouses in terms of handling and wear as I have contemplated them. Finally has does it handle with the maxis tyres on?

Enjoy riding it after all your hard work😀 Simon

Very interesting.  What do you think of the SM Pro wheels? I've been looking at them for a while, but can't quite bite the bullet and spend the money.  Ideally, I'd like another rear.  1 trials tyre, 1 enduro.

Don't suppose you'd be interested in selling you original?

After using the new set of wheels complete with mousse's and Maxis tyres during a couple of two days rally's I can confirm they are fantastic. Great grip and super stable in both long fast corners and twisty endure sections. I am using the original set of wheels with hard wearing tyres (O2) and tubes for trail riding. It took me a while to stump up the cash for the new wheels, in fact bought the front last year followed by the rear this year. Well pleased with the expenditure.
