MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
After searching the forums everyone seems to have a different opinion or those who agree don't ride the same stuff I'll be riding!
Unfortunately I'm looking for a bit of an all-rounder which makes it hard to choose as I want grip for downhill without having too much rolling resistance on singletrack and dirt jumps. My current one is a 2.1 nevegal but I've lost confidence in it after washing out at high speed on a wet long mynd ride a few months ago.
Minions seem to be pretty standard choices at the minute, but again there are so many models I don't know which to go for.
My rear tyre is a 2.1 High Roller xc which doesn't really grip that well, probably because it's so narrow though more than tread pattern?
Geax - be different
I'm about to try a HR 2.35" on the front today - i'll report back if i live! 😆
I had a Minion DH on the front & the HR on the rear but felt like i was pedalling through treacle. Replaced with some part worn MK's but the most worn one was on the front and scared me last week.
Now resorting to a MK on the rear & the HR on the front....
How was it then? Did you survive?!
Maxxis Ardent in 2.25, fantastic tyre, so good i've got another for my 26" SS
HR's front and back do it for me, I'd like the HR SS in UST for the back if it were available but I don't think it is 🙁
i'm probably gonna be shot down in flames here, but... i'm currently using schwalbe alberts on the front of 3 of my bikes, and i'm finding them more than capable 😯
...and only £12.50 each, bargain 😀
