Vortexor Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 (edited) Anyway back on topic I use the Maxxis creepy crawlers, they work a treat for me ever since ive ridden trials. Best tyres on market in my opinion are Try-all sticky tyres! Expensive though. Edited August 18, 2010 by AndyyRider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otacon Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 Monty eagle claw, say no more. Maxxis creepys are shite, the amount of people i see get punnys on them are redic. Try-all tyres last about 30 seconds on street riding there that soft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 I'll pressume that you mean for mod, if so, I'd seriously be considering the Try-All tyre, they way they grip is well up there with the best of them but whats more appealing is how the ride and roll, they're nice and bouncy even when running high pressures, they just sort of feel comfortable and good. And they roll quite well without dragging too much which is nice if you spend a lot of time moving from location to location, but as mentioned, they do wear down rather quick on the street. If you're talking stock and you like to ride in all weathers I'd be looking at the Maxxis Swampthing, I've just started using on, mostly for natural, and it's immense, it'll grip to just about any surface at any angle, incredible. If you want a more streety stock tyre I'd be looking at High rollers or Hansventures, though they seem to be less popular now than they where 2 years ago. Try-all for mod are damned good, the egale claws fold so badly I thought......rear maxxis or new try-all shift As for stock, rain King hands down 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like things that are hard Ok maybe if your looking into try all tyres don't Thanks mike for the advice, paha Montys seem good from what ive seen people using them.

t-bird tom Posted August 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 Ahh cheers guys for the advice, but at the mommnet, i'm using my try-all, which is a lovely tyre i've been running it for nearly two years now, but i did have an egale claw, but i completley f**ked the side wall on it so i'm not going back to egale claws, urm i'm looking at the echos, but i'm thinking of getting another try-all but i'm really not sure, i want something thats more for street and that it's got the bounce aswell .

PaRtZ Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 I completely destroyed my try all in a couple of weeks.. what? a couple of weeks? Unless you were skidding the entire time I cant see how you can do that. I used to ride pretty aggressive rocks with tryalls when I had a mod, and stikys would last me atleast 3 months with decent wear shay (mods on here) and simon have recently bought these new kenda jobbies for the front, and they seem a good budget choice. I give another vote to Try-alls, but only because I never used the creepy crawlers so I can't compare. The tryalls did everything I wanted to be honest...

Mark W Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 Try-all tyres last about 30 seconds on street riding there that soft. Same compound as the Creepy Crawlers, so their wear-rate should be reasonably similar. Out of all the tyres out there, I'd probably put in order of 'best' to 'worst' as: Try-All Stiky Lite Monty Eagle Claw Maxxis Creepy Crawler Try-All Stiky Then not even bother putting the Echos on there Personally, I do prefer the feel of the Eagle Claw on the rear. I ran mine with a reasonable amount of pressure in and found it to be pretty good for almost everything. Certainly found it to be a lot more stable and predictable than the Creepy Crawlers in any case, particularly riding more off-camber stuff. Try-All Lites are worth a go though if you can afford them. Adam seemed pretty keen on his, and from riding his bike they are pretty decent. It's a good amount of weight to save, the tread pattern's fairly well proven and they're a reasonable compound too.

modifiedridah2k9 Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 as do these topics that are the same over and over. Random quote but cbb to go to the add reply button..... On topic now, I have a monty eagle claw. They are IMO the bounciest (sp?), grippyiest tyre i have ever used. I wouldnt say try all, as they tend to wear down bald after a few months and so i've heard, aren't very bouncy :/ Maybe a little biased i am Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny--Trials Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 (edited) Then not even bother putting the Echos on there What is wrong with the echo tyre? Mine has lasted a good 3 months and is only about 70% warn. Yeah they are a bitch to put on but otherwise they are completely fine.

t-bird tom Posted August 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 So what do you guys think is best? Monty Egale Claw Echo Tyre Try-all Sticky Try-all Sticky Light Maxxis Creepy Crawler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cai Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 So what do you guys think is best? Monty Eagle Claw Echo Tyre Try-all Sticky Try-all Sticky Light Maxxis Creepy Crawler They're all good tyres, apart from the Echo's. Get a Sticky Lite if you looking to save wait. Get an Eagle Claw if your looking for maximum bounce. Get an Echo if you want a tyre that'll last ages (but won't grip!) Get a Creppy Crawler if you want a great tyre thats still cheap. My favourite mod tyre has to be the Creepy, its dirt cheap yet its as grippy as any other mod tyre out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modifiedridah2k9 Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 Eagle Claw. +1 Eagle claw rear + try-all stiky front = WIN! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t-bird tom Posted August 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 hmm but i've had an egale claw before and because they fold like a bitch and because my rim is so small i've basically ruind the side wall on it :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they are a bitch to put on but otherwise they are completely fine. It's mainly that the compound is probably more suitable for making houses out of rather than gripping rock.
