Mod Tyre Question To All The Weebike Riders.

Best tyre combination for mod is front try-all and rear monty. Lightest, grippiest, bouncyist, non pinchyist and sexyist set up. However not the best wear rate you can get out of mod tyres but the rest makes up for it. Try-all and monty rear are quite similar but monty come out on top.

This is what I hope to run on my new mod when i finally get the chance to build it.

+1, I've heard good things about the Monty eagle claw. Will have mine fitted tomorrow and will report what it's like. Should be interesting to see how much of a difference there is to Maxxis creepy's.........

Try all for everything imo...

'cept the wear rate... but the other factors rule that out, and anyway, they're extremely smooth, bouncy when slick!

creppy rear, try all stickey front. had a monty front and hated it was soooo shit so i never bothered getting a rear.

Couldn't be bothered clicking that many options, but a Monty rear and Try-All front is easily the best combo out. Way prefer the sidewall feel on the Montys compared to the Maxxis on the rear, and you're not going to get a better front tyre than the Try-All from anyone. Just way, way better at shedding mud, gripping and resisting flats than any 'standard' tread pattern on the front.

Yeah, the Monty rear tyre is a beast. Really bouncy with low pressure but without the wallowy sidewall squirm when you land at an angle. Depending on how long it lasts (the rubber feels much softer than the Maxxis) will determine how good value it is but so far I'm impressed by it lol.

By the way the answer to the last question was:-

Bubby

Watch the film "Bad boy Bubby" if you wanna know what I am on about.

Anyway my try all has worn pretty much out so I'm looking at this again.

I'm interested in the springyness of the monty tyre.

Is this for real? I mean is it way springyer than a try all?
