just finishing my 575 , just wondering what width and tyre choice ? cheers
I run a specialized fast trak 2.25 on back and an albert up front. Strange choice but works well at places like afan etc.
Hey Lord
Im running a Panaracer Cinder 2.1 on the back & 2.25 on the front. Back tire for better rolling resistance and front to take care of the trial. Pretty good combo at the mo but may upgrade to the 2.25 on the back for winter.
Been to Lee Quarry in the wet three times over the last week an no problems and to Gisburn Forest on Saturday just gone (dry) and no problems again. Pretty good all round grip I would say.
Was running Panaracer Fire XC Pro 2.1 folding last month and not to good in the wet, thats why I changed to the Cinders. Dry weather Fantastic.
2.35 High Roller on the front with a 2.25 Racing Ralph on the back
works for me
BrokenCollarBones did you manage to get lost at gisburn ? i went with the lad sat night and managed to ! some cool bits though.
Hey Lord
I've only been twice and the first time I went i did get lost, lol. Had to use the gps on my fone to get me back to the pub. Second time I was ok. Yeah there are some cool bits in there, I like the bermed gully the best, dont know why they have graded it as a black route. The only black bit of it was the drop at the entrance to the section. Im going again next Thursday and spending all day there to have a good look around.
What tyres you going for on your 575 then? Post a pic when its completed. Be nice to see it.
Cont MK Protection 2.2's work really well for just about anything
Depends where you're riding it, eh?

Old faithful 2.35 bluegroove front and 2.1 nevegal on't back.
