    Hi, Just about to take charge of my new Cube Ltd Race 29er….

    The tyres as it stands are Schwalbe Rapid Rob 2.25…

    I live on the southdowns in West sussex sometimes rides Surrey too…

    General riding is singletrack, lots or roots and well muddy during the rainy season… pretty chalky too.

    Any advice on winter tyres would be great!

    Ta Ben.

    My advice is to just ride it with the tyres it comes with.

    Only think about changing them once you’ve done a bunch of rides and got used to how the bike rides and if there are areas where they don’t feel great.

    Maxxis Beavers come recommended

    Bontrager Mud X likewise

    Both are a little narrow though, but great in the mud. Specialized also do a couple of decent 29er tyres. Or there’s always Schwalbe Nobby Nics if you’re a fan. Oh, and Conti Rubber Queens are soon to be available in 29er flavour according to the display at the bike show!
