Fancy a pair of these running Ghetto Tubeless. There was an old thread about it but it fizzled out (think it was a group buy)

CRC have them.

Edit.

CRC did have them but they're out of stock. 🙄

Great tyre BTW.

available here

i will take a pair as payment for the link. thanks 😉

I am not going to lie to you. I used the link and bought 2 tyres…for me.

A "Thank you" is all I can give 🙂

Just riding along

edit-the JRA ones have the EXO sidewalls,might be a different tyre.

All the 2.4's I've had from CRC have been EXO's.

we've got a couple in stock, on our usual 10% off singles, 20% off pairs deal. sounds too late now…

Si

DOH!

I can only se 26" on your site though?

fixed – they're here!

just a quick heads up…………….i use these on 2 29r's
the side walls are like wet toilet roll. very fragile indeed.

thanks, Ton.

Are you running Tubeless? I fancied a Ghetto setup, for no other reason than I havnt done it before.

Ton, are your's the EXO sidewalled version though? They're much tougher than the normal version and certainly not like toilet roll. They're not even that much heavier

not tubless or exo.
are they much tougher matthew ❓

Yeah, the EXO thing is an extra layer in the sidewall that toughens them up and helps prevent pinches and tears whilst adding as little weight as possible. Very new though (only been around a month or so)

I had no issues with the ardent side walls, but then I'm not a big unit so I ride light (mince) over stuff 😉

like all maxxis they play very nicely with a stans set up as well with minimal faffage

Got mine yesterday from the place in Tomthumb's link (Singlespeed central)

They have exo sidewalls. I have mounted ghetto tubeless (using 24" tube and Stans) Didnt stand a chance with the track pump, but went up nicely with the compressor. Still holding 50psi right now, but dont know what to expect on the first outing (there will be a couple of tubes in my bag 🙂 )

for no good reason, here is a pic

I know the rear mech tensioner looks gash but I have tried 3 and the mech is the only one that doesnt slip (you get a full wrap-around) Never had the prob on my 456…(but chain came out almost the right length on that one)
