P700 27" Sedona Coyote vs Tusk Terrabites

[BillEwing]

Comparison 27" Sedona Coyote vs Tusk Terrabites. Coyote is a 6 ply Terrabite 8 ply.

I just want a lightweight tire more for road bed and around the mini farm use. No serious trails.. Something that will perform and last a long time.

Opinions? Thanks!

Given the choice between the two, I’d choose the Terrabites. They are tough as nails!

The Coyotes are bias ply tires, that equals bead to bead six ply. Coyote will have six ply rating on 100% of the tire.
The Terrbites are 8 ply radials, that means you have a four ply tread and two ply sidewalls. People need to understand these companies are misleading the customer.

I get what you’re saying but I’ve rode with guys that have Terrabites that tackle trail no gravel roads and they are tough tires. Chunks out of the sidewalls and all, they hold air and keep going. I’ll take radial construction over bias ply any day of the week.

Terrabites obviously a little more $$ and heavier to move. I wouldn't think the weight would make that much of a difference.... Was thinking about going with 12's not 14's for a more stable sidewall... My machine is a non-deluxe 700-4 and I hate the steel wheels..... Not a fan of my dealer steering me to the non-deluxe model, and am a victim of not doing my homework before looking. Don't want to make that mistake again...
