Vastrap Posted June 24, 2008 Share What sizes and types of MTB tyres do you recommend for Knysna? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorcesterWheelers Posted June 24, 2008 Share I tried out the new Maxxis MONORAIL at the recent Delvera 9-5 8hour race, in conditions similar to what I remember from my last Knysna race (circa 2006) and was highly impresses with their handling, especially in all the single track sections. (I ran the 2.1 LUST version) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WorcesterWheelers Posted June 24, 2008 Share I recomend tires in the 29'er size But I thaught those were only for people of over 6feet tall & oaks we only start warming up about 8hours into a ride..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Climate Posted June 24, 2008 Share If the last few weeks in the Cape are anything to go by, you can expect wet conditions!!! So just ensure the knobs are spaced wide enough apart to shed the mud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
