be border line on a Dunlop 605...
If yer after a 50/50 tyre.. have a look at the Shinko 700...
I rode the DB1K last year with them on the XTR... they worked well at
18 psi front / 22 psi rear on dirt & 24 / 28 on seal...
They give a lot of side bite... I noticed it was a lot harder the throttle
steer the rear with the 700 on gravel...
