Fruity Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 more to the point, who still buys crossmarks!? Eeeeeeuw. I had Crossmarks on my previous few mtb's and never had any trouble with them. Long Wheel Base, Pieterlab1 and BSG 3
Andrew_Smith Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 I had Crossmarks on my previous few mtb's and never had any trouble with them. +1 Correct me if I am wrong, but don't they wear better than an Ikon on the rear? If you ride road a lot too. Fruity and Long Wheel Base 2
Fruity Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 +1 Correct me if I am wrong, but don't they wear better than an Ikon on the rear? If you ride road a lot too.Not too sure, but they were my go to tyres for the past few years.
Hairy Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 more to the point, who still buys crossmarks!? Eeeeeeuw. it makes a good commuting tyre Andrew64, DJR and Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 3

the nerd Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Obviously didn't need that much grip, then.... MM or GTFOH hey Myles... Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1
Fruity Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Obviously didn't need that much grip, then.... Nah, they saw me through all different types of terrain, dry and wet.
Long Wheel Base Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Obviously didn't need that much grip, then.... Look, I agree with Myles about the crossmark not being a great pure mtb tyre but imho for road/pavement/dirt sidewalk I have yet to find something as good. I tried a few conti's and some other maxxis tyres and for reliability and long life the crossmark trumps all others. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1
RustyHWR Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Nah, they saw me through all different types of terrain, dry and wet.Good tyres. Last long and got good grip front and back. Fruity 1
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 (edited) MM or GTFOH hey Myles... MM / DHF / DHR / HRII / etc etc. Magic above all, so far. For the front. Rear - I LOVE MY SLAUGHTER!!! Pity it developed a sidewall malfunction and I had to replace it with an Aggressor. Which, whilst a good tyre, isn't as lekker as the Slaughter, IMO.

I tried a few conti's and some other maxxis tyres and for reliability and long life the crossmark trumps all others.Great for tar, gravel grinding and pure hardpack. Terrible at everything else. Longevity is exceptional, though. But it's like putting ecocontacts on a Huracan. Long Wheel Base 1
