MTB Tyres: The Choises are:

[Spinnekop]

So......the Pythons just look good on the MTB with the grey Sidewall.  But at R540 a pop, that seems a bit extream.

 

What do you guys and girls think????

[Mudsimus]

Ok..voor jy weer delete..Bly weg van die TT's...ver weg. As jy van maxxis hou probeer die mimos of crossmarks. Otherwise go for the scorpions.

TT is die beste MTB bande wat jy kan kry . Dit is goedkoop , sit soos 'n dr@l in 'n wolkombers , loop nie gou af nie en jy kan dit by jou Local Spar ook koop . OOO voor ek vergeet , dit werk fantrasties saam met Stans of JOe's

TT's is k@k, wel dus wat ek hoor. I think Pops het die Pythons nou en like hulle!! I'm also getting new tyres, I went with Kenda Karma DCT's, got ok reviews, Titus and Golefty also think they are great. They are a bit light in the pants but I'll see if they are good enough.

Bontrager Jones XR are also quite good I hear.

[dirtrider]

En jy glo alles wat jy hoor ?

Two posts.  Two Mtb'ers.  Two WAY different opinions............

A tyre you also need to look at if you want overall good grip, and very low rolling resistance is The Racig Ralph, Schwalbe tyre.

Lately i have tried the Albert on th Front(fairly aggresive pattern) & the Smart Sam on the back. Has excellent grip for a little more aggresive down hill riding. But still low rolling resistance with the Smart Sam. These are both Schwalbe tyres.

 

Good luck.

and that is how it should be .

I got a Kenda Nevegal UST on the front and a TT UST on the back.

 

Pretty happy with the choice.

TT UST 2.1 on front and Karma 1.9 on back .

maar baie , baie ouens het die Kenda Karma's gery op die Epic.

[Spinnekop]

Thanks Pops.  Was wondering about that.....

spez fast traks are a perennial favourite

I rode Larsen TT's from Aug 04 until Nov 06. Had no problems with grip (except in mud) or punctures. (Sabie x twice, Giant's Castle, Epic)

Changed to vredenstein Killer Bees (tubeless) in Nov 06. They are light, super fast but offer surprising grip. The rubber is a bit soft and the back tyre is worn after 5 months.

 

The next tyre I am going to try is the Kenda small block 8.
