So looking for a tyre for general use, fell/rock/dale/trail centre - all year round mud to maybe dry- decent price. Front and rear combo going on a Knolly warden,
So what is the recommendations please.
Ps after being on here a long long time it is my first tyre thread ...honest
Maxxis minion dhf 2.5wt for the front.
On the back of my Aeris I use a 2.4wt Maxxis dhr2 2.4wt in the winter and change to a 2.3 Maxxis aggressor in the summer.
3c compound front, dual compound rear. Exo sidewalls.
Same minion combo as joebristol but all year round.
The Specialized Hillbilly 2.6 is a very good 2.4” all-conditions front tyre. The DHF 2.5 is better in the dry, the Shorty 2.5 better in complete filth and the DHR2 2.4 like a DHF 2.5 that’s a bit better in the mud and at braking.
DHR2 is my favourite rear tyre. The 2.3 rolls quite a lot quicker than the 2.4 but the latter is grippier in soft conditions due to the much larger knobs. Dual compound on the back (3C front).
Magic Mary Soft up front Rock Razor Speedgrip rear. Sorted.
