Fast mtb tires....

[JPW#]

I need advice on fast non tubeless tires, what's the fastest for xc.... for mostly hard gravel racing.

I used kenda nevada something during my first race and I couldn't get away haha

Ive got some IRC Mythos XC's which are pretty fast/light/moderately priced, but I've got nothing to compare it to unfortunately.

Apparently Monorails are faster than Crossmarks.

 

Killer Bees?

Schwalbe Furious Fred's are about the fastest you can get, that said they have very little grip.

The Bontrager Revolt Super X - that I am selling

[Racer X]

Those aren't bad hey, how much do you want for them quickdraw?

[quickdraw]

Only have one though

 

Used once offroad (serious) - R250 (paid R440)

 

It is the tubeless ready version (not UST)

Specialized Fast Track!

Yeah Fast Tracks are good, not the lightest but they are pretty cheap compared to the rest.

Maxxis Cross Mark Tubeless UST Lust

Kenda Small block 8 - very little rolling resistance and good grip!

[Racer X]

I was not happy with the SB8's they rolled fast but had a very short life, 6 weeks and mine were toast, no more centre knobs, I slipped on every climb.

My Karma's are quite nice and they are light .

 

Then again they only go as fast as I can pedal, so they are pretty slow

True.

Try the 26x2.25 for more control

otherwise Racing Ralph

I just saw it in the 2009 Schwalbe catalogue.
