As per title, they seem a decent enough tyre and much cheapness.
I have them on my Fireline (the stickier ones front and back).
Been fine on stans Arch rims tubeless.
Yes. On Stans Crest rims. On a Scott Spark 35, 26"
Bugger to get on. Or so I thought. LBS took 5 mins. Gits.
Seem to be working well.
They do what they say on the label. Good all round tyre. Considering the weather changes we get round here. From road to hardpack to peaty swamps to wet grass they've been pretty good I think.
Not light, and reasonably chunky, but seem to be fine.
Got one on the front tubeless on Mavic TN719s, very happy with it.
Probably be even happier if I'd mounted it the right way round! (Don't ask!)
Using one on the front of my Fireline ... no issues, but run it pretty soft if things are muddy or loamy. I'd use one on the rear if there was more clearance.
Running one on the rear tubeless on my 29er, very pleased and I'd get another...heavyish but decently thick sidewalls, rolls fairly well too. Not considered it a front tyre...sticking with my Hans Dampf
Yep - for ages. I just last night replaced the rear and got it spot on first time (my first ever tubeless install - the LBS did them previously) with Stans fluid. They're on Stans rims and work a treat.
Smorgasbord went up really easily on Stans FlowEX rim with just tape and fluid.
They are very flimsy though IMHO. I'd say they are roughly equivalent to a Maxxis LUST carcase.
My experience is based on trying one the rear of my 456ti when I first built it up. It lasted only about 100m into the first rocky descent before pinchflatting. Perfect snakebite slices through the sidewall on both sides 🙁
I've reverted to Dual Ply Minions on the back end and not had the same problem since.
Still got a Chunky Monkey tubeless on the front though and I rate that very highly.
I've just set up my Chunky Monkeys tubeless on P35 rims.
I've not tried tubeless before; the front took about 10 minutes, and the back took about 60 seconds, all done with a track pump and Stans fluid. Brilliant, especially as i was expecting trouble! I don't know whether it was the tyres or rims (or both) but it was so simple.
Time will tell how well it works!
I got a Chunky Monkey working well on the front tubeless but although they are similar to the Smorgasboard I think the width difference does alter them a fair bit. A mate ran them tubless and had some serious burping in Grizedale down the baconslicer / titties track. Put me off them.
