rab shropshire Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 like the title says i need a new rear tyre for my stock what do you recommend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technical Tom Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 (edited) If your on a budget: Maxxis Minion Dual Ply (Really good for grip in wet and dry conditions with a good wear rate.) If you have a bit more money: Continental Der Kaiser or Continental Rain King. I haven't used the Continental tyres but my friend has the Rain King one and its really really good, nice under low pressure and it has an amazing puncture resistance.

Alex Dark Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Dual ply 2.5 super tacky Minion hands down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psycholist Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 I've got a 2.4" Rubber Queen on the back of my Echo Control and it's easily the bounciest tyre I've ever used. I used to run a dual ply 2.5" minion and this tyre is both fatter (The tyre rubs my frame when I'm putting a lot of power down - the Maxxis never rubbed) and lighter ... They grip as well as the Minions too. Not desperately cheap though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 (edited) I would recomend a 2.35 dual ply maxxis minion super tacky. Light and plenty of puncture resistance.LINK Edited July 9, 2009 by Ross McArthur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
