I have a good 120 70 17 tyre that I was hoping to use on the front of an nc30 with 150 60 18 on back
Will this be suitable ? Has anyone used this size on the front did it handle ok
I intend to usen this on the track too
Any input on this woiuld be welcome


cheers Pete

Some of the racing typesuse it but when I tried one it was not suitable - I had bad mudguard issues and had paranioa about it catching my rads under braking...

I personally won't use one but others haev (and still do) so you can try it out!

Be wary of the clearance issues though.. it would suck ass if you caught the rads under braking.... :o
