TomN Posted March 31, 2005 Report Share Posted March 31, 2005 Hi just want a quick answer would you say that a Maxxis Single Ply tyre sidewalls are like Hot S sidewalls? Short on cash and what a small tyre quick. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 They're pretty similar i believe - But if you're thinking of running on the rear, unless you're a smooooth rider or you run 60 PSI, i'd suggest getting a Dual Ply. ......But then you probably know that already (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishwog Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 No, the Maxxis single ply sidewalls are still much better sidewalls (and much better grip!) than a Hot-s, with an obvious wieght penalty..... Maxxis highroller single ply 2.35 - 750g Michelin HotS 2.2 - 630g Not as much as I thought actually (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
