MTB Front & Rear Combinations

[cadenceblur]

You don't find this tread pattern too aggressive for both tyres? From a rolling resistance perspective.

I also wish they would make the Monorail in 29er, I used to love them on my 26er!

 

Now I'm using Ikon at the back and Racing Ralph in the front. Works really well. The Racing Ralphs do wear fairly quickly, but I guess that is the price you pay for having grippy rubber.

26er. Maxxis Monorail front/Larsen rear, pretty good . On the 650, Kenda Honey Badgers,

Impressed with the Kendas, I had a 30mm piece of broken fencing wire inside the rear after a ride at NF, only noticed when I cleaned the bike at home and heard the piece of wire rattling around inside the wheel. Good job from the Stans sealant too!

At the moment I'm running 2.25 Nobby Nic front, 2.25 Ardent back on my 29er SS. I'm enjoying them.

Ardent Front, Icon Back

Just ordered 2 Ardents from CWC on special. One for my front wheel, and one spare. I'm hoping that my commuting which ATE my Spez Ground Control won't eat the Ardent as fast...

 

I'm also really looking forward to the rail like grip it seems to offer on cornering. Now to find a suitable back tyre as the current Spez fasttrack has been good (It's useless in the wet), but wears really fast.

X Front and rear, love the ride, fast and control is very predictable. Mileage is far got 3000 km on current set. New set for Sani.

Has anyone had issues (delimitation, bubbles, etc) with Maxxis UST using Stans sealant (Or any other sealant)?

 

I can't seems to find any recent cases, but there are plenty of cases from around 2 years ago.

Whatever I can find in the bargain bin at the LBS . Must say so far I have not been disappointed .

2.35 Nobby Nic on the front and 2.25 Bontrager 29.3 Team on the back. Oodles of grip
