Icon Anyone Swapped Their Tyres For Road Tyres?

  1. I'm looking at swapping the tyres on my 2024 Icon to road tyres. Choices are a bit limited due to 18" front wheel.

    So far I've seen:
    Metzeler Z8 Interact
    Pirelli Angel GT
    Dunlop Roadsmart 3
    Dunlop Mutant
    Bridgestone T31.

    Anyone used any of the above on their Icon?

  2. Just done a 2000 mile trip up to Scotland on my Icon NG fitted with the Dunlop Roadsmart 4 SP. I liked them so much, I fitted the GT version to my V4 Pikes Peak. Took everything the trip threw at it, 36°C one day, 11°C and pouring rain the next and didn’t miss a beat. The only ‘problem’, half way through the trip, I started wearing out the edges of my boots :joy: The Z8 and the Angel are good tyres, my girlfriend has had both on her 2016 Icon over time but they are a bit long in the tooth now. No experience of the Mutant or Bridgestone. Andy

  3. Not used Mutants on my Scrambler UE but they are an excellent tyre on my Gas gas SM.

  4. I've been using Michelin Pilot Roads to good effect but the front 110/80 x 18 only came in Road 3 and they are no longer available. Don't know what I'll fit next time.
