FINAL COMMENTS ON TYRES PERFORMANCE: Tyres still had 2-3 mm tread left in the centre but the front was getting sevearly scalloped/feathered which is why they were both changed (changed to BT45 so opted to replace both). Generally offered good grip but could sometimes slip on wet roads when cold. Dual Sport tread gives a little bit too much 'grip' on cat-eyes and road imperfections leading to a more instability on poor sufaces than a normal road tyre.
