Its on the front, it will wear very slowly

Yes, but I do lots of front wheel wheelie riding 🤠 .

Only tyres I have tried have been the older gen Specialized Fast Trak and Ground Control 2.35's, Vittoria Barza and Mezcal (Cape Cobra) in 2.35, and last year I bought some Schwalbe Evo Racing Ray and Racing Ralph in 2.35.

 

I have only done one 75km race on those Schwalbe's but I really like them a lot. Nice and light, great traction and climbed great on a very steep, loose part in the race. 

 

So far they have been my favourite tyre on my bike 

 

The Vittorias roll well, but after a wheel it feels like I lose grip with the Barzo easier than I'd like. But they have been bombproof to date.

 

The Spez Ground Control tyre have not been a tyre that works for me or my riding style personally.

Hate this thread - been questioning tyre choices now
