Sorry for the following “what tyres” question…

Moving to a 29er FS in January and have absolutely no idea what to go with tyre wise for these parts. I am currently running Halo Choirmasters on the 26″ hardtail which have been my do it all option for a while now (but I am convinced there is probably something much better out there!)

The bike comes with a 2.2 Icon rear and 2.25 Ardent front. Rims are only 19mm (although I am already having thoughts about putting something beefier on) so I can’t go too fat (though I used to run Diesels on 819s so it isn’t impossible to go for something fatter)

I have not bought tyres in a long time so am completely out of touch with what is currently available!
