Going to BPW in June for the first time Whts best tyre set up looking for a bit of advice
It won't be wet (although its wales so you never know), its not hard on tyres so no need for downhillers. Very little climbing if you are uplifting. Plenty of grip on the trails. You really don't need anything particularly special.
Uh.
'Not hard on tyres'
Is not my experience of BPW. Every time I go there's palpable wear on mine.
It's a trail centre so you'll get away with anything, at least exo type sidewall protection as there are some rocky bits in places
Aye, whatever works at any trail centre works there. And though it's uplifted there's a fair amount of pedalling- both because some trails are pedally and because the uplift doesnt' start at the bottom of the hill and some of the trails end quite far from the uplift too. Going back soon and I'll probably just use my normal minion dhf/rockrazor pair
