footsie Posted August 31, 2009 Share #1 Posted August 31, 2009 Guys don't try the classic radial, the bead breaks before the tire will seat, I blew one at 85 lbs, and another biker trying to mount one on a magna rear wheel said his blew at 85 lbs. That make the third one that the bead broke. Gregg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hummingbird Posted August 31, 2009 Share #3 Posted August 31, 2009 To be honest - I don't believe I'll try any other tire since I put the Kumho on that I got from gunboat. I'm totally happy with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condor Posted August 31, 2009 Share #4 Posted August 31, 2009 classic who / have i've missed something? which tire? don c. The CHENG SHIN MAXXIS C6011 CLASSIC is the tire that pops up when doing a search. There could be other brands using the term 'classic', but this is the one most likely.

footsie Posted September 1, 2009 Author Share #6 Posted September 1, 2009 I really don't know the tire only had classic written on it, the local dealer I bought from said he thought it was built by cooper tire for another company, built to the other companies specs. Had a great looking tread but like I said I personelly know of three that the bead broke before the tire would seat. But it was not a MAXXIS MC tire, it was a ct radial. If says classic on the side I would avoid it, I just did the post so maybe noone else would try, my dealer ate the cost even after I offered to pay anyway, but most would not because of the application.
