What compound are the 2.35 LUSTs. Can't find it anywhere & are they all the the same. I think they are 42a but I can't find it on the tyre.

I've got a pair that I'm finding v slow and trying to persuade myself that a pair of ADvantage 62a eXCeptions would be faster. If I knew they were a different compound as well as tread pattern dropping £60+ would not seem so silly. Even with a few beers in me....

Just riding along reckon they are 62a, which seems sensible to me.

I don't think they are Supertacky, I think they last far longer and drag far less than Supertacky tyres do (been running them for a year or more and had a supertacky front on my Prophet for a bit).

My mate had been running 2xhighroller LUST for 2 weeks and decided he would like the supertacky version (as he thought that my supertackys were making me faster) he bought a pair for 70quid off the Internet - only to find that nowhere on the tyre it states that it's supertacky - he is gutted that he's now got 4 of the same tyres as they feel exacly the same as his 62a version. So I'd say 62a

i would tend to agree with the others and say 62a.
