As above.

About to add a rigid fork to my 26'' SS and am looking into the options for a large volume lightweight tyre to take some of the sting out if the trails.

Any recommendations? Ideally looking 2.3'' + ๐Ÿ˜•

2.2 Rubber Queens UST here would like a 2.4 for the front, running them low pressure for comfort very grippy weight wise not sure as it usually never comes into my thought process.

Conti Air King 2.2 - not much in the way of traction but thinking about trying it out on a SS rigid.

I have a 2.35 Maxxis Ignitor on the front of my rigid. Ok for most conditions but when it gets really mud I tend to put something narrower on.
