Very, very dangerous.

Especially if they are different models and the logos don't line up properly.

Very very bad. The anti-fashion police will probably be along tonight to lock up you, your family and your hamster.

(it's fine - good even)

No it's good - front tyre grip is more important in cornering than rear tyre grip. If your rear tyre has less grip than your front it'll mean your rear is more likley to wash out before your front, which is much more controllable (and stylish) than the other way round.

I'm detecting an alarming amount of bleed between the two forums today.

Utterly wrong. It should be a 2.5 super tacky on the front.

i like you

i feel you might be the kind of forward thinking rider to wear DH shorts from a sale (only buy clothes mtb clothes in a sale!) for normal person riding 'cos you know they'll last much longer 8)

and your name makes me think of boobs.

do you know me or something....exactly the sort of thing i would do regarding shorts....plus they tend to look cooler than lycra ones (although i do wear them underneath).....I went through a phase where i only wore big swimming shorts cos i thought they looked cool

there's nothing wrong with an unrequited bromance :mrgreen:

deadlydarcy
jamie
torm
yeti
molgrips (after he posted some naked photos)

they'll all learn to love me! pretty sure my daily emails and scattergraphs charting my affection for them against the frequency and comedy value of their posts will soon have them at my mercy 😉

with this positive attitude and being the right age to enjoy our generations sense of humour i fear you may be on my list if you keep on the way you going 😆

how are you with lolcats?

In the spirit of the O.P....

is it bad to have a 2.1 on the back and a 2.2 on the front??

It's what's on my HT in the mistaken belief it'd bequeth a little more suppleness with rigid fork-age...
