Mine came off a while ago. Back to Nevegals on the big bike and a Nevegal/Eskar combo on the little bike.

Mud X front and rear since yesterday. I find them ideal for winter riding and they even get me over the wet bare chalk sections of the commute without overworking my sphincter.

Leave the SB8 on the back and stick a Nevegal up front for some rear end slidey action...

PHA! Take small block 8's off?! I was just thinking the other day its crazy how much grip those little blocks give! Although I am down south its still dusty down here 😯 just let a load of air out of them and you'll be fine!

I went from [fr/rr] sb8/sb8 to mudx/sb8 beginning of october (great combo) but had to change to mudx/mudx last weekend due to delamere now in winter mud-wrestling mode - which is actually quite fun also 🙂

Put Swampthing 2.1s on the SS last night. On Cannock today, all the climbs just sap my will to live. So much grip downhill, even on roots but soooo draggy going back up.

If I were much further south I'd be swimming, but it's gopping around here now.. Mud X back on for the forseeable..

Can I borrow your microclimate for a day to dry my shoes out ? 🙂
