Rafal Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 Hello, im saving some money for der Kaiser and wondering if that's not too big for my Piranha. Had Big Betty with about 5mm space under a vee. Any experience with der Kaiser? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mata22 Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 (edited) i dont think so, my friend have piranha with try all tyre and comparing to my bike ( ozonys xs 26 with der kaiser) i would say it wont fit. we didnt try, just compared so i am not 100% surei have been using der kaiser for 10 mounths, and all i can say--> great tyre. so stycky compound that it wont slip ewen on wet, but yet it is so tought that is still 50% of the thread alive. sidewalls are wery strong and i didnt have so many snake bites since i started to use it. it is wery big tyre ( comparing to try all rear on the same rim echo urban, it looks like it is 2,8 wide). i think you cant go wrong with this tyre, only "bad" thing is that is heavy comparing to some other tyres ( schwalble)i hope i could help even a bit Edited December 28, 2009 by mata22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusevelt Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 My Rain King's fit my 07 Pitbull (using trialtech undrilled rear rim) no problem. Ps, Rain king perform better than kaizer on both street and natural. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusevelt Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 Ali.C has tested both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max-t Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 Wouldn't bet on it, The rubber queen doesn't fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurent Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 Wouldn't bet on it, The rubber queen doesn't fit.The problem could be the integrated brake booster.I wouldn't bet on it either if you don't want to waste money.I use à rubber queen 2.2 (not wider, but higher than the 2.4), and i had to take off a piece of the integrated brake booster.Weird, considering the fact that this same tyre have a good clearance near the bottom bracket......stupid deng frames...but cool frame though..

aener Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Ali.C has tested both.And therefore it is fact? He could be the most rigorous tester in the world - but the result would still be his opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
