Which CX Tyres ??
Any suggestions for a good cx tyre?
I bought my cross bike a couple of years ago as an all rounder and have been using road tyres or schwalbe sammy slicks dependent on weather. However this year I've started doing some proper cyclocross and I'm finding the sammy slick's aren't up to it.
Any suggestions welcome.

I am currently riding Specialized Terra Pro which I find are fine in most conditions, no problems at Reading CX recently, which was very wet and muddy.

have a look at challenge Limus tyres
They are pricey but worth every penny. I've kept going when mates on mtb have got stuck in the mud.
Look at the Conti Cyclocross Speed. Got them on the Genesis and pretty good on less than paved roads...
..others will probably be able to recommend better tyres though
