The Dude Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 im in the market for a new tyre set, any ideas on the best? front im running DMR moto, i love it, still got lots of tread but has lost all its grip. for a new one looks pretty good, same style, but slightly diferent. i cant seem to find a good rear, with some suitable puncture protection. i might get another kujo and put in a double thickness tube ontop of a normal one so it can last more than 20 seconds without pinching.

butcha87 Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Thats the story with the 26" ones, but I think they're a lot better on 24". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punkrider Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Thats the story with the 26" ones, but I think they're a lot better on 24". ← Oh, are they different then, I thought that the same materials would be used to make both, 26" and 24" (Y) Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dude Posted April 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 ahh i know the overall awesomeness of maxxis, but didnt realise they did them in 24" do they come in a 2.2? i dont like these massive tractor tyres, just too squidgy, it feels like theres nothing there, ontop of the tyre clearance problems. the only regret i have about going to 24 is no more comp 24 (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rich4130 Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 well thats useful. ive got my eye on a maxxis tyre set now, just no where does them. any chance of new sizes tart? ← Bikedock. Have a look on southerndownhill forum, you can get a few quid off if you put SDH-Member or something in there order notes box thingy, I got mine for £22 or so posted I think. There good tyres, quite a shock if you've been running something thin light and hard, like a Choir boy lite, but I'd never go back, well maybe in the summer for a bit, there 1150g btw. rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
