Erickvb Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 I've been looking for the right combo on tyres for the 2017 Sani2c. At the moment I'm leaning toward: Vittoria Barzo Front and Vittoria Saguaro in the back, have anyone tested this combo @ Sani?
madbradd Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 I had a racing Ralph rear barzo front last year in the mud. Barzo was great, the Ralph not so much. Given previous experience with a saguro (not at Sani though) I would have preferred the saguro to the Ralph. Have a new saguro waiting to go on for when my Ralph wears out.

Erickvb Posted March 25, 2017 Author Posted March 25, 2017 Madbrad, thanks I'll keep that in mind. the Nerd- perfect, thanks.

Wannabe Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 If that combo worked for Cadel Evans and George Hincapie at this years Epic, what more can we mere mortals ask for......
CAAD4 Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 As the trails are swept every morning, even Crossmarks will work. If it rains, head over to one of the many reasonably priced LBS on site....
marshace Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 Great combo.Maxxis Ikons were not great last year !!!
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 As the trails are swept every morning, even Crossmarks will work. If it rains, head over to one of the many reasonably priced LBS on site.... That's *** funny
peds Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 As the trails are swept every morning, even Crossmarks will work. If it rains, head over to one of the many reasonably priced LBS on site....crossmarks better work as that is what I'm using there. I will take a broom in case they miss a spot!
CAAD4 Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 crossmarks better work as that is what I'm using there. I will take a broom in case they miss a spot!A million dirt roadies would agree. I like them. They are the Toyota Camry of rubber. Not particularly good or bad, but get the job done reliably... And when they're on special at CWC, a bargain too.

GREAT tyres for that sort of terrain, but anything else - no thanks. Bearing in mind I'm talking re front tyres. Back tyres can be different based on how you want it to hook up. If you're more of a drifter or a railer...

nonky Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 Spez Fast Track (control casing) front and rear; orSpez Fast Track (control casing) rear and Ground Control (control casing) front.Inexpensive and works in most conditions.
bolt67 Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 Anything works at Sani - round and rubber with air in them will do the trick, trails are so groomed it likes riding on a highway, don't need much grip even on front tyre ! Guys even road it with Cyclo Cross bikes last year
