[Closed] On One Chunky Monkey 29x2.4

I did run one on the karate monkey for a while but it was on a rabbit hole rim. Came up Huge - in a good way. Obviously they're a weighty thing though I can't say I noticed it when I was riding. Nice and grippy but I find the smorg plenty grippy enough on my fs and I no longer have the km.

This for me, CM is after all just a wider Smorg...CM too draggy for my general riding imo; i save the CM for trips away

Ran CM's front and rear for a trip to Sierra Nevada in Spain a couple of years back. Didn't really notice the drag as mostly uplifted but they coped well with mixed surfaces and grip levels, soaked up the smaller stuff with thier volume and on the whole performed quite well.

This was in 26" guise, though I'd guess the 29'er versions are just the same but larger diameter

Mate of mine loves them on his SC Tallboy. He's been running Maxxis for ages but these have become hard to get hold of so he tried the CM as a front and liked it. We recently did a long weekend in Wales taking in BPW and Afan so he put one on the back also and had nothing but good things to say about the grip.

Running a 26" CM on the back of my Spitfire - like it better than the Smorg.

Thanks pips. It is for a Karate Monkey. Got a CM on an OO inbred 29er frame at the mo I'll be getting another for the KM build.

In that case...
