Only recently Motonacio has fitted a set of enduro Distanzia's we don't have yet a full performance report from him so when we do we will know if the Distanzia also work well for enduro bikes (I don't see why not)

Thanks. I have tried the tourances offroad and didn't think they had enough grip (but they are as you say wonderful on tarmac). I drive 50/50 on (bad) tarmac and dirt and do a lot of mileage so that's why I think the MT21 is too much of a cross tire, it wears down too quickly. Maybe should get me 2 set of tires, one for offroad and one for onroad, but changing tires twice a week sounds kind of exhausting.
