dirtrider Posted August 3, 2012 Share To come back to the tyres . I find it very interesting to say the least that anybody would want to find "a" tyre for any stage race . If we raced on one surface it would make sense to maybe look at tyres , but we will be going over rocks , through rivers , over sand , tree roots and snakes . Anyway we can discuss this over beers at the event . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swift01 Posted August 3, 2012 Share First year I did it, Day 3 was on my birthday. I took a beer up to every tower cracked it open and had some. Little warm and shaken about, but nothing like a bit of a celebration Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway we can discuss this over beers at the event .the reason why I asked is because I still have the Racing Ralphs fitted since Sani2c. The last thing I want to do is sit next to the track on day one at Mankele due to a sidewall cut. I assume it might be better to swop the RRs for my Bontrager 29.3s as they are nuke proof Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rouxtjie Posted August 3, 2012 Share Ran 2 geax sagueros last year...no issues, even though it was wet on day3. PS I rate day 1 and day 3 of the towers better riding than sani day 1 and day 3. Day 2 of sani is obviously epic but besides. 3 Towers is an awesome race....and affordable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mankele isn't that rough that you will cut sidewalls around every corner. Take a spare tyre and leave in your car just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
