NEW TYRES FOR 2017 TRIUMPH T120

[Espanolito]

Hello friends,

Time for new tyres for the 2017 Triumph T120 (14,700 km and still on the stock tyres).

Any thoughts on the Continental Road Attack 3? Or, any other recommendation?

Many kind thanks.

On mine I put on Avons Storm 3Ds.
Best thing I did to that bike.
I also had a drizzle of rust under the rim tape. This came from the bare metal where the spokes had touched the edge of the hole and the chrome had come off. Good reason to do it yourself.

Yeah, those are on the list as well, but the replacement: AVON Spirit ST. Heard a lot of good things about those as well.

I have a 2022 T120 and I never liked the stock tires as I found them slow to turn (very round profile )and very spooky in the rain
I replaced them with a set of Metzler O1's and what a difference, not a lot of manufactures make a 18" front tire
They have a slight crown on the front so the turn in is much better, they track better and but have not had any experience with rain, but given the tread and lots of syping I am sure they will be great

Thanks all. Ended up going with the Conti Road Attack 3. FRONT 100/90R18 / REAR 150/70R17 69V. Dealership said they were on backorder. Found them in stock at Fortnine at a good price and got them shipped directly to the garage.
