mrturner08 Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 (edited) you either want to get: Maxxis Creepy Crawler << these are amazing for street and the tread last quiet a while. OR Try-All Stiky << amazing for grip but the tread lasts like 3-4 months max i think. I've had mine that long and both are about gone. I'm ready for some new tyres and I'll be getting some maxxis defo next pAuL! Edited April 7, 2007 by mrturner08 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reinold Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 Believe me you want an echo tyre, they last ages, grip well, generally mint for street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do echo still do the front tyres in 26" ? Can remember seeing them ages ago and wondered if any shops still sell them.....lewis.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim-Hill..Yeah Mate Posted April 8, 2007 Report Share Posted April 8, 2007 (edited) my monty eagle claw lasted 4 months, sidewalls a bit too thin though, if you run low tyre pressure then there quite pinch happy.and a friend had a echo tyre, he used for about a month, good in summer when the walls are dry but as soon as they get a bit damp there death traps.buying a luna tyre soon they seem okay, sidewalls relativly thick, quite a soft grippy compound so...Tim.

Tim-Hill..Yeah Mate Posted April 8, 2007 Report Share Posted April 8, 2007 yep, got luna on today, well happy with it so far but yeah im only using it for summer riding, can see it slipping on a wet wall in winter thats when to purchase a tryall. another thing luna tyres are 15£ in my lbs that saves 10£ on tryalls when they do just as good job (summer) luna tyres last ages aswell Tim.

dozydame Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 I use an echo tyre on the front cause its lasted me 18 months with life still left on it, and looks better than a creepy crawler cause its skinnier. don't get one for the back though, way to heavy.
