29er UST tyres

Just bought a new set of Maxxis X-Mark UST tyres... not hugely made about them as Conti's have always been my preference... Are these the only ones so far in the 29er range that are UST?

Got Specialized Controll's on my steed and they are awesome. I had them on my 26'r and now on the big hoops. Great tyres will never change.

Bontrager's 29-3 Team and XDX are also available in TLR (Tubeless ready). Not sure if they are UST, but they have a thick sidewall. They roll well and are "light". Front specific 2.25 at 730g and rear 2.0 at 600g. You will also love the Geax Suguaro 29" TNT. Love these on my 26" and available in TNT as well for 29". They are hard wearing in the middle with soft compount grippy outer knobs.

@Top Fuel - where did you get your 29er Specialized Controls from? I also had them on my 26er and thought they were great.

Go them from Bridge Cycles in Cape Town. I presume any Specialize dealer should have them! As far as I know they get them from le Peleton which is the SA agent. They were a good price too. Can't remeber exactly but I remember when I got them that they were pretty reasonable.

I got the racing ralphs, 2.25, about R550 from CWC and the work great.

 

No problems, with punctures, yet, they super light, roll well, and grip great, on hardpack, they work for me.

Thanks Top Fuel will go have a look. I got my bike with Intense System 29 tyres which I just can't seem to get to "grips" with.
