Who rides with these tires? Anyone doing cross country races with them, are they any good?

 

I can get snakeskin version for R260 each

That's an incredibly good price for HD's.

2.35

Meh. I don't like them. Gets a bit vague when you lean them over in soft sand which is our staple diet in Summer. I won't be buying them again.

The HD's are pretty fat. So a 2.35 is more or less as fat as a 2.5 Maxxis.

very very good price....would love one for my SS up front....

[Captain Fastbastard Mayhem]

The pacestar is the "faster rolling" version. Not as grippy but then it's faster rolling. Still a very good tire, and in pace-star better for the harder conditions you get up there in JHB.

 

Oh, and Omega - you just need to lean harder

 

Found that vagueness this weekend. It seems to be the transition zone between middle and side knobs. Quite good knowing that they're there when leaned hard.

so close to 6cms?

[D Vader]

Very good price!

I would pay a lot more, they are absolutely fantastic! ( 2.35 snakeskin Pacestar)

Riding it on my SS now ( front) and totally in love, esp. on dry loose over hardpack.

Don't let this get out, others will want them

NB: play with the pressures till you find the one that gives you and your riding style the grip you need. The harder compound makes the tyre a bit skittish in the rough.

I've been training with them, lots of grip but pretty slow and picks up every piece of sand you go over.
