Just got some Racing Ralph's today. thought i'd ask a quicky as they seem to be popular with the locals of STW. They are not front / rear specific or directional so... have you found them better with the rear reversed? it should grip better for climbs then? Thanks

i use ralph evo's (they are front / rear specific ๐Ÿ˜‰ ) on my race MTB, they are fast rolers, however the side walls are very week ๐Ÿ™

they are not a gripy as some tyres, but the speed you get on other parts of the trail are better ๐Ÿ™‚

i was thinking of giving kenda small block 8's a try, to see if they have stronger side walls...

You say they are front / rear specific? They are evo's that i just got and no mention on the box's or sidewalls, Very odd! I got some 2.4's as i fancy something with a bit of volume. Cant believe how tiny the 2.1 high rollers they replace are in comparrison!
