  • Tough, soft, narrow tyres…?

    I put this post up periodically, but I still haven’t found what I want.

    I’m after some 27.5 narrow tyres, 2.1″-2.2″, but they need tought sidewalls and soft grippy rubber.

    The old Maxxis Lust 2.35″ Super Tacky High Rollers were great. Altghough they stated 2.35″ they wern;t so width was perfect. But they don’t exist them in 27.5.

    Had some Maxxis Beavers, but hard and sidewalls just not tought enough.

    Currently got some Conti 2.2″ Mountian Kings Protection. They seem to fit the bill, but I’ve had some issues; leaking sidewalls, weird rebound behaviour on wet rocks. Poor bead hook up meaning I’ve blown them off the rims a few times.

    So any other ideas? And no I don’t want to run wider tyres, it kills the fun!
