AndrewEH1 Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 Hey, anyone have a line on when the new Conti 24" streety tyres are due out? My Holy Rollers are getting a bit worn... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isitafox Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 I emailed them enquiring and they replied that they might not even release them yet. There was a bit if a cock up with the testing of them though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thinkdougie Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 Hopefully try-all will pull their finger out soon. Sick of my fat albert now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezmtber Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 I would buy a try all 24" fat Albert is good but try all so much better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewEH1 Posted February 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 This is for street use only so needs to roll well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cai Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 Something trials specific needs to come out soon. It's the only thing holding 24" trials back. A 24" version of a Maxxis creepy crawler, or a Monty eagle claw, or a Try all Sticky/sticky lite, or any of the Continental tyres with the black chilli compound would do nicely 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its either rockman or echo no one else rides any other. However I love my echo very much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezmtber Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 I am really liking the ozonys 24" frame but such a lot of pennies 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0zzy Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 cant see try all making anything soon. conti be best bet i woulda thought. the tyres that people recommend on here are shocking for a 24" any way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thinkdougie Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 I am really liking the ozonys 24" frame but such a lot of pennies colour scheme is awful too There isnt a decent 24" rear tyre, my fat albert folds over if it even looks at a rock :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cai Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 Maxxis made a 19" creepy crawler for mods, so what would stop them from making a 24" creepy crawler? It could prove quite profitable for them too.. (I here by claim 10% of all profit made from the sale of 24" creepy's as it was my idea ) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grant wildman Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 There is a continental 24inch tyre coming out under the Kaiser project name (previously named rammstein ) The brand manager for continental got back from a visit to there factory in germany last week and told me was still a few months away. The tyres danny has been riding were originally a one off (he made them himself in the factory) but due to interest they are putting it into production.

0zzy Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 people need to remember how small the trials market is aswell. products don't come as quick as we expect and big brands dont want to back a small sport for very little return in comparison to downhill etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben_travis Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 The tyres danny has been riding were originally a one off (he made them himself in the factory) but due to interest they are putting it into production. You were so convincing until that statement! I'm pretty* sure they weren't a one off and he had several 24" tyres made for testing! *by pretty sure I mean 99% 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 You can make that 100%. Seems that Conti rep might have bought a little too much into that factory tour video they did 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Gething Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 I'm also pretty sure that they aren't one offs, because I have seen Duncan Shaw has some: http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/topic/177429-duncan-shaws-new-echo-trial-24/?hl=%2Bduncan+%2Bshaw+%2B24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 Danny also posted a photo of a fairly large box of them on his Facebook page when Conti shipped some to him too. Ali and I got to run them too, as did a couple of other people so there were definitely a few sets floating around. </check me out> 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
