New Tires: Continental TKC70

Seen several articles on this tire. I think they are optimistic to suggest the TCK70 is in the same league as the K60 for off road. Looking at the tread pattern this is a competitor of the Shinko 705.

If I remember correctly, the sizes coming out would be the same as we use for the Shinko 705. 130/80 front 150/70 rear.
 
Looks to be good alternative to Distanzia
Problem is no front in 17"
TKC 70 Available sizes:

What size front did you use? Thought the TKC 70 was 19" and 21" fronts only.

According to my preferred tire supplier (mynetmoto.com) the Continental TKC 70 rear tire (160/60/17) will be available Q2 2016.
The TKC 70 front tire (120/70/17) is apparently already available (but currently out of stock).
I have ordered a set of TKC 70 tires for my NC750XAD expecting delivery as soon as the tires are made available.
 
I still see folks that are only getting 2500 miles on TKC 80. As big and fat as I am and as hard as I am on my NC7, I get around 5000 miles on TKC80 rear tire and 6000 on the front tire. Yes this is about 2000 less miles than I get on street tires but these are dirt tires. Yes the Sport rear tire gets better milage, but in hard rain on asphalt it can slide right thew a red light.

I'm also interested on those tires (my actual tires still last thist winter I guess), please post a feedback (with photos :) ) when you have them

I only find the front size in that website and it's out of stock, Continental website doesn't show that size, anyone knows why?. for the rear 150/70 17 works for me.

I think the " out of stock" answer regarding 120/70 17 is just made up by a computer.
Can't find that size for TKC 70 anywhere else. No 17" front listed on the Continental sites I find.
But... I don't mind beeing wrong here :)

I quote myself :)
Maybe maybe I was right at the time I wrote that but it' s wrong now!
Front tire TKC70 120/70 17" will be available Q2 this year according to Conti site.
It's good to be wrong :)
 
Great news!

I also knew the TKC-70 17" front would become available immediately after I replace my tires.

Well... Continental answered my email and they said that the production of the stock sizes for the NC is a bit delayed. They expect the 120/70 17 to be available in Germany this August and the rear 160/60 17 at the end of september, also in Germany I guess..

It's a shame because I really wanted to try this tires but I can't ride without rubber :/
 
i want to try these. but they must be talking months of 2017 and not 2016.
 
+1 greenboy. I will need new tires in a couple of months and would love to try a set of TKC-70's in stock sizes.

Fingers crossed!
