smelly joe Posted November 5, 2005 Report Share Posted November 5, 2005 go for maxxis high rollers, the super tacky ones!! super thick sidewalls make them very hard to pinch with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted November 5, 2005 Report Share Posted November 5, 2005 From my personal experience of riding other people's stock bikes, I almost always dislike Michelin 2.35 tyres on the rear, I've always loved Maxxis Minion and Swampthings on the rear as 26x2.5 sizing in Super tacky, Slow reezaay is possibly too soft and'll wear down too fast, so if you're into purist trials, none of that 24" and BMX type stuff, then a fat Maxxis super tacky tyre is probably best (and they are supposed to offer great anti-snakebite properties due to their dual ply casing).

Fishy Posted November 5, 2005 Report Share Posted November 5, 2005 I find the Maxxis Mo-Fo 2.35 i great tyre for the rear, i've had no puntures with it, even though i've ghostied my monty into thorn bushes, and run with basically no air in the tyres...

Robwalker Posted November 5, 2005 Report Share Posted November 5, 2005 i dont see why everyone dislikes the mitchlins, i think there great and u can get them nice n podg for sidehops. also they grip really well and frankly look rather sexy (Y) Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deonn trials 55 Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 For a stock bike I recomend a maxxis minion 2.35 on the rear .My mate runs this tyre and it`s really grippy and has some spring in the tyre.And it`s also very puncture resistent.As for the front I would either get a maxxis minion front tyre or a panaracer fire 2.1 .The paneracer looked really grippy for the front when a saw tunnicliffe use it. :( So rear=maxxis minion2.35 front=Paneracer fire 2.1 You can buy the maxxis from www.tartybikes.co.uk and the paneracer i`m guessing from www.chainreactioncycles.com. Cheers Deonn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Gardner Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 (edited) i dont ride stock but what my mates have been telling me who do ride stock would be michelin rear and a paneracer front.
