    On my fs it’s Conti Mountain Kings 2.4 width 650b with black chilli compound.

    On the hardtail it’s the cheapest Schwalbe Black Jacks they make. Fine on the road, awful if you show them a root or rock that is damp.

    9/10 Butcher grid on front.
    For rear, HR2, Purg grid, Slaughter grid, Vee Crown F. As long as the rear is tough and not too draggy.

    Depends on the conditions. Most of the read a slaughter on the rear with either a bonty XR4, HR2 2.4 or a baron 2.4 BC on the front. Got a HR2 on the rear at the mo, good in everything bar slop.

    Those using Butcher up front, do you find them draggy ? I used to use Purgatory front and rear on my soul for a few years and swopped to butcher on front this summer. Loads of grip but mighty slow for general xc stuff IMO.
