isitafox Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Gonna order a new front tyre as the one I currently have is massive and not particularly grippy, I'd like to still be alive if it rains so that discounts a small block 8 and leaves me with a DMR Moto Digger. Should I stick with a 2.1" up front or is it worth getting the 2.35"? Or is there another suitable tyre that I'm missing??? EDIT: Gonna throw Schwalbe Mow Joe in there as well with as bit of trimming though is it too narrow?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezmtber Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 I have got a mow Joe you can try for a bit if you like. I switched to a tabletop because I was getting quite a few pinch punctures with the 1.85 turret. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stirlingpowers Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Does anyone know if Schwalbe has stopped making it or not? The global site only mentions 1.75 and 1.9 tyres now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted September 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Might have done as the 1.85 is a clearance item on CRC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted October 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Ive got a Mow Jow.. No complaints to be honest. Not had a single flat with it. It is narrow though..ive got used to it though Dez has just dropped me his off so I'll give it a try this weekend, bit of an improvement on the 2.4" I've got up front currently. Seems weird to say it but Schwalbe do make some good looking tyres! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niconj Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Dez has just dropped me his off so I'll give it a try this weekend, bit of an improvement on the 2.4" I've got up front currently. Seems weird to say it but Schwalbe do make some good looking tyres! Just wondering. What do you think of it? I was told that a smaller tyre on the front would make a difference. I have the holyroller atm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 It'll be better for general trials than the holy roller though it took a bit of getting used to. Joe is a big rider and after watching him with one you can pretty much feel safe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niconj Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 What about the Rocket Ron 2.1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilf Posted February 15, 2014 Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 I'm running Moto RT's and for street they're seriously good, wet or dry. Go near mud and you'll die though haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
