Any recommendations on tyres for the Lime Burner at Thetford Forest? I’ve got fed up with Continental Gravity Kings which are soooo sloooow. I swapped bikes with a mate today. He had IRC Backwoods (or something like that) which were a massive improvement, but no longer available.

Cotic Soul, 26″ doesn’t need to tubeless. Got mud tyres for the winter, just need something for the rest of the year.

Many thanks

(yes I know it’s another what tyre thread, but tyres are expensive so I’d like to try and get something that works rather than trial and error)

Furious Freds

Panaracer Razor MX.
Just enough tread to grip round corners, but bloody quick

Word on the street* is Schwalbe Racing Ralphs and/or Kenda Small Block 8’s for the drier months.

*Actually the TIMBER website (Thetford Improved Mountain Biking EnviRonment).

Racing Ralph’s with rocket Ron upfront if you want something more versatile

One of each just ordered from CRC. I figured a Rocket Ron up front might be sensible as I corner like a 17 year old in a Saxo….

Small Block 8`s here or Conti Flow Pros at the moment
A lot of the guys I ride with run Larsen tt`s, we are not XC Race whippets but do hammer the tech bits so need grip more than fast rolling
