tdubz Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Hi Im wanting to put a set of slicks for road use on my mtb I have tried 1.9 on it and still feels sluggish What is the thinnest i can go with the current rims i have (mavic d521) and what tubes will i need to run? Many thanks Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezmtber Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Specialized fatboy slicks I found were really good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Echo-Scott Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 No, Just get some thinner tubes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew62 Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 Have a look at the WTB/Freedom ThickSlick range, they do some 26" super-slick tyres, with good puncture protection. I use the 700c ones on my commuter and they're good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
