Most tyres should be all round, if not i would ask for a refund.

Racing Ralphs - On One

although I am now trying a Maxxis Ardent on the rear as my 2.4" Racing Ralph was a bit too wide (2.25" RR would have been fine but I fancied trying something different)

Only tried the Bontrager ACX & the WTB Exiwolf (PANTS). Gone back to the Bontys with hardly any wear on the WTB's.

MentalAlex,

Yep still fixie off-road 🙂 I do have a freewheel bike now for easy days!

JAM29er, I have found the Exi great in everything but really claggy mud (in which case I use the Michelin AT)

I found the exi to be sketchy in the corners in dry or wet loose stuff, poor all round in the mud

I am getting along really well with the Specialized Captains. As a good all-rounder at a decent weight and price and play well with tubeless they are hard to beat.

Bonty XR 1.8s are pretty good. I've had some on my cross check and they're nice and light. NOt amaxingly knobbly though so wouldn;t be the best mud tyres
