[QUOTE="Matty, post: 91486, member: 1339"] I have run my Comet with a 3.00x20 Avon on the front and having got fed up with the SM and Goodyear rears rapidly wearing square, I fitted a Roadrider with a tube which vastly improved the handling and has remained round in profile for much longer. Remember to look for and remove a small label inside the roadrider because if left in, it will rapidly chafe through the tube. I complained to Avon about this who said it had the manufacturing date on it and did not matter if the tyre was used as intended in tubless mode!! the label was not to be found in the latest Roadrider I bought so perhaps they do not now put one in.
