Bought a pair of High Rollers as old Ignitors are now worn out.
Seem to get a good press, Ignitors were struggling shedding mud, so I thought I'd give them a go.

Front is a 2.35 Maxxpro 60a, according to the blurb.

But the other one?
It's a 2.1, it says so on the sidewall.

It's a folder, not a wire bead, er, because it folds!

It's not a maxxPro 60a duro, because it's not carrying that logo.

It's not a tubeless LUST version, 'cos it doesn't have the LUST logo either.

So that means it's either a 60 TPI, 70 duro tyre or a 120 TPI 62 duro.
I know it makes no practical difference and that a rider of my limited ability is unlikely to be able to tell the difference, but how would I tell which one is which?

I just want to know in case I like it and want to replace it with something identical!

I know what you mean - they're confusing. I bought a 2.1 and the cardboard wrapper gave more info. I put it on the front and hated it. Too small and all over the place. I put it on the back and it was better then I turned it around and it was better still. It wheelspan too much when the rotation arrow pointed the right way.

If it was the 120 TPI, 62 shore version it would have "eXCeption Series" on the sidewall, like this:

So it looks like it's the 60 TPI, 70 shore version.
