They don't make them in 26" unfortunately. We used to stock the 26" WTB Bronson before they stopped bringing them in.

 

The Onza Ibex would be a great alternative. I have stock of those.

They do make them in 26". Can buy them on Amazon and EBay in 26", but in SA it's a problem

 

Ah, I see. Must be a new thing. Buy them online :thumbup:.

Hi All

 

Ikon now available in 2.35 in SA

Rear Ikon 2.2 and Front 2.35 .

Would this be a good XC combo ?

 

Regards

Where have you found 2.35 Maxxis Ikon?

 

I'm also looking for 2.4 Maxxis Ardent Race.

They should either be available at your Lbs soon or they can order them for you. I can't exactly remember all the new models and sizes, but everything is wider and with bigger knobs.

Even the new Crossmark II made me exited.

it's because there's a new agent. Who actually knows what people want to ride.

My Lbs still get their Maxxis tyres from the old suppliers. Maybe they just decided to up their game since they now have some competition.

Popped in at my Lbs this afternoon to have look and a chat and these have arrived earlier today.

The new Icon 2.35 and new Ardent 2.4, both 29".Not only are they wider, but the knobs are bigger aswell. 1f26b06ad5dff3eb534a994dced9f8fa.jpgHere is the old and new Icon's next to each other. e6e5531533e66e12a564fc50961a3c79.jpg

Hi Guys, need some advice here.

 

Normally ride Maxxis Crossmark  I ust 2.1 front and rear. Have I new set of Saguaro Vittoria 2.2 that I took of from a bike I bought.

Rear Maxxis blew a sidewall today.  Front Maxxis is at about 70 % thread. Now what to do?

Do I:

a) Just put the Saguaro on the rear rim and keep the Maxxis in front.

b) Move the Maxxis to the rear and put the Saguaro in front.

c) Take the front Maxxis off as well (keep for spare) and put the Saguaro's front and rear?

 

Thanks in advance.
