[#195809]

I've been tyring to get a pair of 2.25 Schwalble Albert UST tyres as I have a pair on another bike but are now discontinued.
Recommend me an alternative thats generally OK in all conditions but not too draggy on tarmac sections - want them to replace a pair of Nobby Nic's that aren't grippy enough in the softer muddy bits.

Panracer XC, if you can find them in UST.

Geax Barro Mountain TNT 26x2.3 lighter than UST

You'll need to use with sealant though

Roll and grip better than NN's

You can still get Schwalbe Albert 2.25 UST - they've just re-named it with the Fat Albert which now comes in 2.25 & 2.4 flavours - see [url= http://www1.hibike.com/main.php?sessionID=A24c68d49750dfd16361c4cb558f34f38&method=m_product&nodeID=&pageID=1_m_240_2_1&productID=cab93ac99149f7e103b727268c8e3d6c ]here[/url]. Great tyres - far better than NNs for general riding & best I've had in 6 years of tubeless.
