Has anyone seen Bontrager FR4 tyres for sale? I can't find anywhere selling them yet and a quick google only returns them on the spec. for Trek Sratches.
Cheers

not heard on the FR4, but have bought some FR3's from chevin cycles recently

they may have been renamed as the XR4?

could they have been taken off a bike? hence the reduced price.

are listing some of the new Bonty tyres with the 2010 naming system. Not all in stock yet. What's the difference between an XR4 and FR4, size?

XR4 more xc, available in 2.2 and 2.35
FR4 more freeridey, 2.35, heavier, more aggressive.

Trek website lists the Scratch as having FR4 but the pictures are of bikes with Kenda tyres, I don't think the FR4 exists yet! XR4 could well be what I'm after.
