Irc Front Trials Tyre.
I like the irc rear,but the front felt awful.very vague and tended to push on tight turns. maybe it was just me.put a mich on and the problem went away. also tried a rear v-rubber,seems to work really well especially in mud. its all down to personal preference,pay your money make your choice.

I have an electronic from craig mawlam on my maj. early days yet,but the easy fitment and easy adjustability make it a winner with me,i have made 3 marks on the backplate advanced,compromise and retarded,the difference is very noticable.it gives us fools another excuse for poor riding,had the ignition set wrong,would have won if not for that etc etc. someone on here must have craigs number.i`ve lost it. i think it was about
