Please please Rush Sports, add the following to your inventory:

Minion DHF 29 x 2.50 (3C/EXO/TR)

Agressor 29 x 2.50WT (TR/DD) or (EXO/TR)

and the Forecaster in  27.5 x 2.35"

Its nice to have choice, but I find myself a little overwhelmed by such a wide range.

 

On my Camber, I am not sure if I want Agressors, Ardents, Forekaster, Highrollers or Minions (DHF or R)

And then, which to put on the front of back ?

It's easier to just stick with the Specialized Ground Control and Purgatory. I quite liked that combo, but I want to try something new for the sake of it.

Will  there be  a big difference between the ( old faithful ) Ikon and the new Aspen ? 

 

Aspens apparently rolls a bit faster, and are lighter if I have it right. The Aspen also have a lower profile center tread than the Ikon, but more aggressive side knobs. Have been riding Ikon as a marathon tyre, but I am very keen to give this tyre a go - looks promising.

Still nothing in 2.6 or bigger thats not for the #enduro boys. Would love me an ikon 2.6 but nowhere to be found locally.

I'm pretty sure that Maxxis don't make an Ikon in 2.6. What you're looking for an a Rekon.

They actually have a 2.8" Rekon and Ikon... Maxxis do not make a 2.6 Ikon. I actaully have both in stock, just in storage with relocation at the moment. If you still need at the begining if Feb please PM me and I can get some to you.

XCO/Marathon - Aspen front and rear? How is the performance in wet weather? Currently running Forekaster front, Ardent Race rear, love the grip but I need to roll/climb a bit faster.

Racing Ralph before this, fast but traction is a problem now in winter.
