Trust me Yellow mini pin 1's do not last as long at these Darts on EOS carpet.
Mini pin originals do last longest, but good luck getting them now, as they are only being made for EOS this season, after minipin 1's proved not to last long enough at the last meeting.

I found that the yellow rubber compound on darts felt different to that of the other new tyres I had. Even compared with other brand new in packet tyres, it felt more plasticy.

I feel they will be a goto tyre on astro this next summer season, and will give far more forward drive and less side bite than both pins and spikes.
I was happy with the wear rate at Batley winter series on the EOS carpet, and while i will use new ones for the next round, the used ones are perfectly good for another club meeting.
