    Thats a year i have had a pair of Larrys on the pug and the rear is not even half worn yet, probably done 1500+ miles (i ride mine all the time), at that wear rate the big outlay of £85 is not too bad at all

    My 9zero7 felt very much like an alu bike. NOt spent enough time on a Pugsley to comment on it.

    I take it you've not seen Nate then.
    is that the best you can come up with? it's hardly an agressive tread even compared to a dry condition DH tyre

    Wouldn't fancy that on a hybrid.
    'be a whole load better than one of these would...

    and how wide is that ?

    contact patch is considerably less than a nate at about 5-6 psi

    if you'd ride a hybrid with tyres at 5psi you're a complete fanny

    having ridden both (on roads) a soft compound DH racing spike is quite a bit harder work than a fatbike tyre. [/tangent]

    I think the Larry rolls a lot betterer than a HR supertacky never mind a spike.
