I need a new front tyre for my hardtail. Default is a Chunky Monkey for I think 25 quid, is there anything better out there for similar money?
Riding is Peak rocks, local singletrack and the odd trail centre and Lakes or Wales trip.
Also I have in the shed a Continental Mountain King and Geax Dhea TNT – these are in the “stick on the rear” pile, either any cop on the front? The Geax weighs more than a small moon.
Five rides (used them for a week with White Room in the Alps), and I’ll trade them for a donation to one of the animal rescue charities we support. My email is in my profile, drop me a line 🙂
For a tenner more than a chunky monkey MINION DHF EXO TR from OO funnily enough.
I nearly clicked buy today myself, but I know 2.5″ won’t clear my forks so I opted for a 2.3″ butcher. Once I factored the postage in it was pretty much the same price…
Actually if we’re trying to flog the OP our old tyres I could do with offloading some:
L->R
-2 off used Maxxis swampthings 26X2.2″ dual ply “slowreezay”, dual ply wire bead
-2 off unused Schwalbe Wicked will, one 26×2.5″ one 26×2.3″ both wire bead.
-1 off used schwalbe Muddy Mary, 26X2.5″ wire bead.
-1 off used wicked will 26X2.3″ wire bead
-1 off used specialized captain control, 26X2.1″, folding bead, folding bead, 2bliss, I think this one may have stuffed a cut ~6mm, not sure if I repaired it..
-2 off used specialized Eskar control 26X2.3″, folding bead (although I might have to keep one of these for a while).
I am in Reading, I can post or you can pick up/meet if localish…
Possibly time to stick a FS thread up…
Make me a derisory offer, I might just accept…
