tom675 Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 Im looking for people's reviews on the new dunlop gp, trying to decide whether to try one for the reeth 3day or stick to the trusted mich x11 Bike is a 4rt with morad rims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsjimmy Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 I rode the Scottish with one, lasted me all week, not much use when i got home, it was pretty bald, but did the milage. Recently nipped the sidewall on my current tyre (3 trials old), put a hole in it but didnt fall off the rim, used a temp repair to seal the hole and it was fine, so maybe the sidewalls are a little softer but importantly it stayed on the rim when down to 0psi, where as my last Mich' came off the rim in similar circumstances. (4RT/D.I.D Rim) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breagh Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 I asked this question a few months back and didn't get any decent answers as they were just out. As above did the SSDT on one so it was pretty hardy and grip was fine in that event. Don't have the same feel as a Michelin and I had to run it softer than I normally would to get the similar grip. Might be fine on a 4rt though as it's a bit heavier than my Ossa? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gassa1 Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 I've had one on for a few weeks now and it's absolutely fine, very soft and grippy and it seems to be wearing well, I wouldn't have any concerns about using it around teeth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biffsgasgas Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 (edited) Rocky mountain motorsports has them in here in the states and they are only $4 more than the standard d803. Its peaked my interest. X lites here are usually $180 on up state side where this gp is only 94 bucks. --Biff Edited July 22, 2015 by biffsgasgas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5again Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 Bought one after seeing them at SSDT but on a 2013 GG Factory Rep it loses all pressure in one lap of a southern (I.e. no rocks) club event, just like an IRC does on these flanged rims. Gutted, so reverted to x lite on same rim and no problems at all on a dry rocky road trial. Subsequently have tried the same 803GP on an old style GG rim with a rim band and very impressed, grippy and I think it will wear well.

timp Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 I think it's the poorly made rims at fault. They vary in the measurement round the circumference. IRC on DID rim isn't usually a problem but IRC on Morad and it's very variable. Some good. Some bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gassa1 Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 I've got mine on a new gas gas and never had a problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
