Mark W Posted September 23, 2010 Report Share Posted September 23, 2010 Holy Rollers are better than everything, tyres-wise. For the ratio, 23:17 or 18 feels really nice If you want to keep it a bit smaller though 18:13 or 18:14 should be sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To heavy me thinks 23:17 is what i was gonna look at dual trialtech's 23:17 looks good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted September 23, 2010 Report Share Posted September 23, 2010 I've never noticed them as being heavy. I did notice the fact that they feel way nicer than any other 24" tyre I've tried, roll better, grip better and take hits better than any other tyre around. But yeah, I guess if you just to fully sacrifice function to save a bit of weight you may want to look elsewhere, but I can't really rate those tyres highly enough.

cultiv8ed_mike Posted September 23, 2010 Report Share Posted September 23, 2010 I used 16:13 when I had a fourplay. I also had a nokian XXX tyre on the rear, super stiff bmx park type of tyre but fairly heavy (over 1kg). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew62 Posted September 24, 2010 Report Share Posted September 24, 2010 I run 18:13 on mine, its probably a bit light but gets me by. However i'd like to run a few gears on it so i could go fast but its going to be expensive to switch back to a 22t set-up. In terms of tyres....if you want street tyres and don't get Holy Rollers you are an inbred. Plus.....they are not heavy, not in the slightest - they weight around 650grams and are about a kilo lighter than each of the tyres you're currently running so i really don't know where your getting your information from. Are you not thinking of hookworms? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
