Shinko 244: the best budget dual sport tire?︱Cross Training Adventure

http://crosstrainingenduro.com http://tractionerag.com The Shinko 244, is it the best dual sport tyre in the budget range? I always thought Shinko was a Chinese brand, but it isn't. Shinko is a Korean company making tyres since 1946. And in 1998 they bought the rights to Yokohama motorbike tyres, so these are actually Japanese designed tyres now made in Korea. A riding buddy of mine has used them for years. I have had a few rides on Pete's 690 in the dirt, and the traction is surprisingly good. On many tracks the grip is almost the same as a fully knobby, although you can tell the difference once you hit soft sand or mud. They still do a decent job as a 50/50 dual sport tyre, but not quite the same as a proper knobby. Once I saw Pete's tyres, I realised I used to run these tyres on my XR400 twenty years ago. Our group did a mix of dirt riding but also chasing road bikes around twisties in our local mountain ranges, and knobbies slid around too much and wore out fast on the road. Incredibly cheap, long lasting, and they performed well on and off road. Our group was definitely impressed with the 244 as a true 50/50 dual sport tyre. Regular viewers will know I don't normally review tyres much as it's such an individual opinion about what makes a good tyre. So here are some other opinions I found on the forums. The Shinko 244 consistently gets good reviews, so I don't know if it's the best 50/50 tyre in the budget range, but it would have to be up there. Mind you, there are problems reported too. A few guys reported a lot of tyre noise when road riding. However, others say this disappears once you pump them up to the recommended maximum for road use... 29 psi. A few riders said they found the Shinko 244 tyres did start to chunk if run over 75mph on hot tarmac for extended periods. But obviously you should aim for a more road oriented tyre in that case. I never did on road riding in the wet, but while some riders reported the Shinkos were fine in the rain, one rider did comment that the grip was poor on wet roads. So what's with the Goldenboy name? Apparently this was the original name, but it's now called the Shinko 244... I suspect because Goldenboy sounds like something a Chinese marketing department would come up with. I have heard riders say they were trying to copy Goldentyre's name, but this tyre has been around long before the European Goldentyre brand. A few of my riding buddies are getting into adventure riding, I'm advising them to get the Shinko 244 tyres and I'll eventually post a long-term review based on their experiences. If any of you guys use them, let me know what you think the comments. The Shinko 244 series has been around for a long time, the Australian distributor is not exactly sure how long. He said he prefers the name 244 series but agrees that a lot of people (old school guys) still call it the Golden boy and it is marked on the tyre sidewall.
