Howdy all. Getting ready to replace the rear tire, and wondering what tires folks have used for the 19" rear. I understand the k70 is a perennial favorite. I mostly commute on tarmac, but I like dirt roads and want to spend more time on them. I am interested in longevity, cornering and wet traction on tarmac, and traction on dirt roads, roughly in that order. Is anyone using Shinko 705s on a 19" rear? I can't find a rear in that tire for that size, can a "front" be used? I am currently using Duros which are okay traction-wise, but the rear wore pretty quickly (barely 3,000 miles).
Also, anyone have experience with the Shinko SR241?
