[Closed] What's nearly as quick as a Ralph but tougher in 650b?

I'm leaning towards a Bontrager XR3 Team Issue. Run XR4 before and apart from being a bit slower was a good tyre. Any other suggestions?

I’ve tried the XR2 in team tlr version, and found it thinner and got more cuts than the Ralph SS.

Bullet, go for a 2.25 snakeskin Ron.

Actually meadured faster than a Ralph below 35psi on the Rolling Resistance review, and spikier for grip.

Cheers for the suggestions. Was thinking of a more winter/spring tyre although not full on mud specific - kind of a good do it all tyre for the time of year and could cope with Peaks type rocks etc. Will go to RR for the summer (if we get one!)
