as above: has anyone any experience of what these are like? I'm looking for a small volume mud/ wet weather tyre, but preferably not too sketchy/ scary on bits of tarmac and rock. Will these be any good or has anyone got any other suggestions? Also looking at 1.55" or 1.8" Maxxis Medusa as a possibilty.
Cheers
No idea of Geax ones but I like Bonty mud-x 2.0. Great XC tyre for the 10 months a year of british wet riding. They do come in a 1.8 but I find tyres that skinny impossible to run at low enough pressures not to ping off everything and stick to roots and rock.
sorry mate found trailraker/bonty mud x combo and never considered anything else!
I have those Geax Barros, they're my 'muddy event only' tyres - pretty good at cutting through thick gloop and never clog, great for wet enduros.
Tried them for general trailriding, but like most skinny mud tyres they're sketchy on rocks, hardpack & tarmac. Would wear quite fast on that kind of going too.
and as above, not much volume to them, need to run high pressures to prevent snakebites.
