alb51trek Posted February 14, 2019 Share I've got an older TREK Fuel EX trail-ish bike which I absolutely love, but I cannot find any decent 26" tires for it anywhere. Does anyone know where in the Gauteng region I can find decent 26" tires (don't say crossmark plz). Specifically looking for front tires currently. Used to run Specialized Eskars (26 x 2.3) but I've torn a few of them to shreds now. Tubeless obviously.Any help much appreciated, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piet.j.joubert Posted February 14, 2019 Share Hi, I bought some Onza Ibex 26" x 2.4 tyres from the Trailhead bike shop at the Spruit a couple of months ago. Maybe give them a call and see if they have in stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairy Posted February 14, 2019 Share Give Stoke in CT a call, they are well priced and carry an impressive 26'er trail/AM/#Enduro range of tyres. Shipping should not be a deal breaker to JHB from CT either. I've got an older TREK Fuel EX trail-ish bike which I absolutely love, but I cannot find any decent 26" tires for it anywhere.

BvN Posted February 14, 2019 Share Hi, In the past I have found that Solomons in Pretoria North sometimes stock decent 26" tyres.I don't know what they currently have in stock though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alouette3 Posted February 14, 2019 Share StokeEvoBikeEasybike As any other bike shop and they will give you a Crossmark! If you go Continental, just wash out the waxy coating on the inside, otherwise they struggle going tubeless. Dirkitech and Hairy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
100Tours Posted February 14, 2019 Share I can send you a pair of 26" Maxxis Ardents from my spares cupboard - I have 4. Brand new. Leftover spares from a previous bike. I think they're 2.25 width These were my tyres of choice for Swazi Frontier for a number of years. Edited February 14, 2019 by 100Tours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
