I have been running Conti vert pros on my mojo for a while now, I had them on a previous bike and always liked the fast rolling nature of them. I also have some maxxis highrollers I used for alps trips. So really I am looking for a fast roller that has more grip than the conti vert, which is great in dry but poor when wet. I am mainly riding in north yorkshire and lakes, so stone and roots and hard packed surfaces are the main.

Seriously? You're really looking for a tyre that's poor in the wet?

Assuming that's not what you meant :wink:, try Maxxis Advantage 2.25". Better than a Highroller in nearly every situation, pretty much on the money for speed.
