Nick Garland Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 Unless you say in what way you are unhappy with them no one can help.Is it the lack of grip of X tyre or is it the pinch protection of tyre Y?You might find that one tyre grips better with worse pinch protection whilst another has better protection but less grip, and you will just have to adjust to compensate whichever it is.If you have not tried try-all tyres they may be worth a go, pretty grippy and good protection, this is on stock not sure on mod.

powerz Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 (edited) Well out of all the tyres i have had the Maxxis creepy crawlers win every time but i must admit they do wear a little quick, so if it's the wear rate you wern't happy with how about trying the echo trials tyre,i have got one at the moment on the rear and the wear rate is alot better with little compremise of grip but the side walls are a little stiff for me so im going back to the crawlers.

abe Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 the reason could be tyre pressure, tyres wear faster when they are flat. I think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harmertrials Posted February 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 yes, The only reason I am running the tyres is because I bought the bike with them on, I knew that they were soon to be bald, I am asking advice for other tyres that I haven't tried.

ilikeriding Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 look for a tyre with a harder compound, i find that maxxis high rollers and continental dh last for ages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
