As above, i'm looking for the best combo for my Giant Reign X1, will be doing 2-6 hour trail centre rides and need them to roll pretty fast on a few miles of roads now and again in Wales in just over a week and can't decide which tyres to get!
Always been happy with Maxxis High Rollers in 2.35 but they always seem thinner when I see my mates Kendas?

Is there anything else I should be considering as they will be seeing some pretty nasty rock gardens and I don't want pinch flats ๐Ÿ™

I have 2.35 LUST high rollers, very good they replaced bontrager big earls. They are a little on the skinny side compared to rubber queens.

they are pretty big, they don't fit on my norco. they are probably around 2.4, maybe 2.5 but the fact that they are quite tall means that some frames will be too narrow at the chainstays. 2.2's would be more than fine i would imaging.
