Hi all,
So I’m looking for a new pair of tyres for the Bird and after years of maxxis dhr2s and Aggressors, I’m looking at other options. I’ve read nothing but praise for the Hellkat, especially as a front option, supposedly an improved Mary that rolls quicker and weighs less. I’m tempted to get one for the rear too now summer has gone and done one!! Anyone tried them as a rear?? Also casing wise, they do an enduro casing that’s on par with dd but like maxxis, only in softer compound which I’d rather not run on the back. Atc casing looks very light, but read a few reviews saying it’s surprisingly tough, more exo+ I’m thinking with a rimpact could be up too the job? Nevegal2 is another option for the rear, faster, less grippy, but can get it in their ebike casing which is more robust than atc, and comes in harder compound too. Shame the hellkat doesn’t offer the same option, only in 2.6 it seems in the UK.
So yeah, opinions please, any feedback on the hellkat on the whole and obviously being stw, other options I might want to consider 😉 cheers
