Go Monorail on the front. X-mark is like ice skating on the front, but does superb on the rear.

P.S. There is another thread about this somewhere... recent too.

I searched the forum,couldnt find a direct comparison of the two.Anyone rode both,or have input?

I had Crossmark at the back but found it to be unpredictable. I am riding Monorail now at the back and so far it's a bit better but it's still to soon to come to a conclusion.

 

I ride Ignitor on the front and without a doubt the most control I have had

Decided to give the monorails a try

You won't regret the Monorails

Rocket Ron in front and Rocket Ron at the back, if it is very dry and hard the Furious Fred is good for the back, but it is a very specific tyre.

Rode through various conditions today,lots of grip in loose conditions,even on damp trails,it holds up well.im happy so far,time will tell
