a quagmire of mud , but the Shinko 804 / 805 combo sliced through the mud and selfcleaned nicely . Once up on the elevated dirt road and trail section , they gripped well enough to compare to a true set of knobbies .
With respect to longevity , after 2,000 miles , the amount of wear is consistent with other adventure tires — about 80 percent of the front tread and 60 percent of the rear tread remains , with even wear and very little cupping . Overall , the Shinko 804 / 805 combo works very well , and I ’ d happily put them on again after this set wears out . The 804 front is available in four sizes for a suggested price of $ 99.95- $ 167.95 and the 805 rear is available in six sizes for $ 99.95- $ 214.95 ( see website for sizes and which can be run with or without tubes ). – BRUCE GILLIES
