D Vader Posted December 19, 2013 Share Im also considering running Ikons front & back for better rolling or leaving ardent front & Ikon back combo for extra grip. 1st time so I suppose Im over assessing everything. Feeling undertrained ......Im also considering running Ikons front & back for better rolling or leaving ardent front & Ikon back combo for extra grip. 1st time so I suppose Im over assessing everything. Feeling undertrained ...... Ikon rear is good, but I think there are much better front tyres than Ardent ( its heavy without the performance benefit, rather do Rocket Ron 2.25 snakeskin, light, grippy and pretty tough) RossW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcza Posted December 19, 2013 Share Going with Racing Ralph SnakeSkin again, rode it last year and used it at every other race this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thug Posted December 19, 2013 Share Irrespective of which bike I'll finally ride Attakwas on, I'll be using the same rims with a WTB Weirwolf on the front and a Racing Ralph on the rear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cathmtb Posted January 2, 2014 Share I have two spots in a shuttle van that can meet you at the finish and take you and your bike back to Outshoorn (start) if anyone is interested. I paid R300 for 1 spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burty Posted January 3, 2014 Share Bought new RR Snakeskins for this race normally ride with Ikons but they less than 50% tread & been told that tyres are important & should rather invest in new, especially for this race. Im 70kgs and not sure of pressure I must run these new bad boys. Normally run 2 bar with Ikons Any advise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
