I am looking to replace a MAxxis advantage 2.25 as a front tyre. It's great in wet and dry conditions, but in any sticky mud is squirms around and has limited side bite. [I just couldn't get around corners in deep mud last night] And there is next to no clearance on the arch of my Rebas.
I've come over a bit weight weenie also, and would like something 600g ish in weight. Advantage 2.1 is an obvious suggestions, but what else is out there a bit smaller than the 2.25 advantage xc weights and good in mixed conditions? Nevegal, Nobbly Nic, Mountain king 2.2 ? and really how big IS the Bontrager XR4 2.2? Opinions please!
note: I really don;t want a mud tyre. I'm not a conditions matching tyre swapper!
