Check reviews inline. Heidenau K60 - One characteristic about the Heidenaus we know we liked, even before we tried them, is the tread pattern. The blocks are laid out in a chevron or herringbone pattern.
Like full knobby designs, the most aggressive dual sport tires, like the TKC 80, typically alternates rows of tread blocks with wide rows of open space. This allows the tire to get a very good grip in loose soil but on pavement you typically get a rough and noisy ride because rubber contact with the road is interrupted by the open spaces.
The wide open spaces also means there may not be much rubber in contact with the road so traction is dicier, especially in wet conditions. If you look at the chevron pattern of the Heidenaus you see that it is possible to have a lot of open space between the tread blocks for routing sand, mud, and water out from underneath the contact patch, but there is always some rubber in contact with the road as the tire rotates.
The K60 as a relatively aggressive pattern for a dual sport tire with wide voids between the blocks of rubber for channeling loose dirt, mud & water. Rider reports in the forums generally give the K60s high marks for off road traction, but also very good adhesion and longevity on pavement. This is usually a difficult combination to achieve in a single tire design.Today!
