Anyone got a new Hutchinson Bulldog 2.3 they want to sell? Or know where I can get one? Hope to find one before settling on a Toro.

Toro has the very same thread, it's just the new name for the bulldog as far as I know!

Stu, Stu, Stu.....to the untrained eye maybe, but to the eye of a tyre whisperer there are many, many differences....
don i've a slightly used 2.3 tubeless torro you can have for 20 quid if you want.
Mike Jordan get me my last set, give him a call, he might have some in stock, or can get them pretty quick.
To be fair I don't tend get caught up in technical tyre talk, they look and ride the same to me (bulldog and toro), I don't really get into compound etc!!
I would be interested in your take on the differences?
Is it not dangerous to get too attached to a type of tyre as maufacturers need to change them every so often to promote interest and sales?

Stu, I bleat on about a lot of stuff, most of which is tongue on cheek and best ignored. I've found Bulldogs to be the best tyre I've ever used for the front, my riding style depends on being confident as to what the front tyre is going to do, I have no faith in the Nobby Nics I'm currently using which want to wash out on all sorts of surfaces. If I can't find a Bulldog it will be a Toro, and apart from their center knobs being in a different orientation they seem to be much the same tyre.
