AVON tire hardness

Does anyone have durometer scale readings for AVON hill climb tires?

No need to be specific, just something to give me some idea of the surface hardness of various compounds at low/ambient/high temperetures.

Cheers

Hi Jouhar..

Not much help really but thanks for that. They do not [or at least do not appear to] represent durometer ASTM D2240 A- scale readings, if they were durometer readings one would expect them to be listed in numerical order (eg: SOFT > HARD). They seem to just be AVONS pet name for the compound.

I have contacted AVON by e-mail to no avail, I will try calling them tommorrow as they should have the info.
