[Closed] Wow... Just Wow!!!

Where's the Tioga factory XC's.?

'Tedious to mount'

Indeed.

I had the Fire XCs in yellow, which makes me feel shameful...but still have a 2.1 Ignitor, which comes up about about 1.5.

Is it a piss take?

Superb stuff! Must get the track pump out and check I've got 55lbs of air pressure.
And that voice 😆

To be fair if you check out ezvid wiki you will probably see how much utter shite there is on there. I mean 'the 7 best vibrating watches' 😆 so I could understand 'wow....just wow' if some credible bike related company was knocking this out, but as it stands I think it's just funny.

Warranty on request!? Wtf does that mean.

Hey, they do have some useful (ez)vids in the collection. who was it asking about these earlier?

Search Wiki.ezvid.com before you decide!

Youtube is full of random channels like this, pumping out top lists of shite day after day. I reckon they are made by bots stuck in a learning loop or somethng.

PMSL 😆

That's so spectacularly mis-informed I'm not sure I have the right superlatives.

Fools - IRC Mythos were the best tyre!

It's brilliant. Absolutely random features for 20 year old tyres. "If you're travelling you can take it off and fold it up to store in a box". 😆 😆

Are they the same bots that write some of the bike tests you can read in the mtb magazines ?

Hey!! 👿

I've got Velociraptors on my hardtail and they're awesome! Admittedly, they can be kind of lethal on wet roots and pretty deadly on wet rocks if I'm honest. They also have a tendency to clag up with mud, but....but.... they are called Velociraptors, surely the coolest tyre name in the world?

I'm going to pump them up to 55 psi tonight and see if that improves their performance. I'll let you know how I get on!

I have some brand new velociraptors in my garage if anyone would like to sample their excellence first hand!

Doesn't everyone still put 55psi in their tyres then? 😕

That has got to be a piss take?

These WTB Velociraptors will leave a distinctive imprint thereby allowing you to retrace your path

Pffft

This rendering my warehouse of breadcrumbs redundant

It was all about the Kujo/Mythos combo in my neck of the woods 8)

From time to time you may need to hose the rubber off!

Is disappoint

no mention of Conti Vert Pros 🙁

I had some Velociraptors once, amazing things. Heavy, slow, draggy, no grip, not much use in the wet, useless in the dry. Only worse tyre I've had were some Michelin DH things that came on a new bike and weighed about 5 pounds between them. That would have been ok if they'd been grippy, but they just sucked in every way possible. Tried giving them away to mates, but nobody wanted them so they went in the bin.

I still use Fire XC's.

Superb for powering over divets!

Superb for powering over duvets!

I still use Fire XC's.

I still use Maxxis Ignitors - but then I'm still on 26" with inner tubes 😯

no mention of Conti Vert Pros

...the bodies of all those who used them are rotting away in forests - none of them survived their lethal slipperiness! 😀

'waves at natrix' Yup,so do I on my winter hardtail.
Best back in the day tyres eva 😉

I remember when I first started biking again I pumped up my tyres to the pressure on side of sidewall.. Around 50 psi.

Made roots interesting..

26" and Tubes here as well.

OAP

Old & Putrid

I am just about to build up a cove handjob (frame from ebay the other day) with ignitors and tubes on, and BB7 brakes, although it will be 11 speed...

Feeling guilty now - maybe I'll put the rubber queens on it...

Edit: Given the rest of their videos, this is all they do all day, upload videos on niche product based topics to send targeted traffic to their website which they monetize via Amazon.

I've put an Ignitor on the back of my son's GT Zaskar. I do actually love him so I might swap it for an old High Roller or Smorgasbord.

What kind of empty soulless job is that?

Imagine going home to your kids and have them say "Daddy, what do you do" ?

Help.....i appear to be stuck in retro world.....not only do i have new velociraptors, but my xc hardtail is shod in Ignitors....

TBF this is one of the more harmless forms of affiliate marketing - the worse quality their videos/web content is, the less people will interact in a positive manner with them, and thus Youtube/Google will show their content to fewer people. Kinda self regulating..

The worse kinds are either:

The ones who play on people's insecurities (Weight Loss, Get Laid etc) and sell them expensive E-Books / courses for 50% commission.

The blogs promoting web hosting - commission can be up to $125 a sale, some lifestyle bloggers are making hundreds of thousands [i]a month[/i] from encouraging others to start blogs, which inevitably fail as they don't know how to write engaging content/promote etc.. never trust a blog article recommending a web host.

I still use Ignitors 26 / 2.35 and think there a great all round tyre.

so. can we blame the OP for incentivising them to make more [s]awesome[/s] [s]historical[/s] bizarre tyre related videos?

I'd still use Fire XCs reasonably happily. I've used Fire FR's recently, and they were a pretty decent all round tyre.

Obviously a rubbish vid if they were 7th best though.

I'm hoping they make one on dropper posts.

Did the mega on ignitors in 2010, no issues

Still failing to wear out a pair of Factory XCs on my singlespeed. They may well outlive me given the asymptote mileage curve.
