ultimecia Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 Hi, i've just finished building my pashley 26mhz, just wondering what recommendations people had for tyres, need something fairly light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koxx2009 Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 It kind of depends how much u want to spend, weight wise i would recommend tryall sticky, I don’t know allot about 26” but I hear maxi high rollers are a reasonably good tyre, however they pinch quite allot as I know but there may be others on here that can help you more.Luke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam1992 Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 Tartybikes.com maxxis high roller tubeless for the back and a normal high roller for the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eskimo Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Skinny, slick tyres are a great way to eliminate weight if you're not needing loads of grip and puncture resistance. Foldable is another weight saver but comes at a cost. So if you're into 'street', tricks etc, go skinny and slick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadNick1.2 Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 I use Maxis Minion for Rear and Conti Explorer protection for front. Front is lightweight so easier when on back wheel.I aint had any pinch flat on rear yet and been ridin for 8 months on it. You will need a good large volume tube as well if you want to avoid them pesky pinches... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoots man Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 (edited) maxxis minion fronts on both. 2.35 fr on front and 2.5 fr on rear. front single ply 60a compound and rear double ply 42a super tacky compound. the rear i find damn near bomb proof and grips to everything.
