Finally had to admit defeat and accept that it's probably time to change the Small Block 8 that I'm currently running on the rear. I've seen a Kenda Slant 6 in the LBS and have an idea (probably a very silly one!) that it might be a good intermediate tyre for winter trail centre-y type riding.
Has anyone tried Slant 6's, if so, what do you reckon to 'em?
Nope but interested to hear too. TBH this is Nevegal season for me though, or Telonix for muddier stuff and snow. Looks like it should be a good bad-summer tyre though.
Ridiculous idea. You'll fall off. It's only suitable for summer trail- knarl-y-riding.
heehee, yeah, I wondered if it'd be a recipe for crash & burn.Ridiculous idea. You'll fall off.
I've got more sensible tyres on my other bike, but the Slant 6 would be on the back of my short travel race bike - tend to keep it for whizzing around Sherwood Pines & Cannock, rather than local Peak nadge trails. Don't mind a bit of slip & slide from the back, but SB8 just doesn't have enough traction to drive itself out of longer muddy stretches (anyone'd think it was a summer tyre eh?!)
