I have a Kenda Small Block Eight 2.1 and a Kenda Blue Groove 2.0. A pic of the Kenda Small Block Eight: http://www.ykkbikes.com/files/SB8.jpg A pic of the Kenda Blue Groove: http://www.ykkbikes.com/files/BlueGroove.jpg Which one would you guys recommend using on the front and which one on the rear? And why? SeanGT2009-02-27 06:36:53

Very interesting! I thought a FS climb better. How come all the pros use FS then? Is it because they have the best of the best FS? So basically what you're saying is, get a HT unless you can afford a R50k FS (if you're planning on racing)?

Thanks for the info guys. I'm curious though, because this is not the 1st time I've heard this, why do you say that if I'm serious about racing and winning, rather go for a good HT? Purely because of weight? I know that FS bikes are heavier than HT's, but does the advantages of a FS not make up for the bike being heavier?SeanGT2009-02-24 12:59:06

Let's say I have R10k to spend on a bike, what would you guys recommend I do? 1) Buy a really good new HT 2) Buy an entry level new FS 3) Buy a 2nd hand FS 4) Take the money and upgrade my current HT bikeSeanGT2009-02-24 09:01:21
