Well, oppinions are different on this subject.
I had Trailmax on my Transalp some years ago and I was very happy with
them, I found the grip compairable to enduro 3 metzeler, and they seemed
to last longer.

On the other hand a guy in our Africa Twin Club had them on his Africa
and changed them within a month!

But, maybe we were talking about different tyres:  
The once I am talking about have "arrow like" rubber design, but if I
remember well the once my friend had were more enduro like. Are there 2
kinds of trailmax?

I am not sure.
