Any Pirelli users have any issues with the rear knobs cracking/separating at the base of the knob after 2 - 3 rides? The first time it happened i didn't think too much about it but my son came back from a ride the other day and when he was washing the bike, he pointed out to me that this new tire was doing the same thing! I'm thinking I need to contact Pirelli but am curious if this is only happening to me.

Thanks, I didn't know that. Did Pirelli offer any kind of credit for those?

PIRELLI all the way
I always think if the tire lasts long it's not getting good traction

I put the Dunlop mx 32 on front and want the 32 on back soon. It has a 52 now and it is OK but our track is orange clay and sand mix.

DURO tires I get deal on them and for the price there unbeatable they look just like knock off Bridgestone 602/603 and 402/403 and work decent easy to put on light and last very good.

I put Dunlop mx 32 rear on bike and in about 5 rides / races it was chunking off no thanks I had better luck with the mx 52 tried.

I've ran the Bridgestone 403/404 for a few years. Got a new 2015 bike so thought I would try some new tires, the dunlops Mx 32's. Absolutely amazing in the sand, hard pack and intermediate terrain they aren't doing a lot for me personally. Going back to the 403/404 for everyday riding that I do.
