Right then, STW, do your worst.

Looking for a light, fast rolling XC tyre, very much along the lines on an old skool 2" XC race tyre. However...

24inch
Skinwall

Anything? Have found DMR SuperMoto, but think they're a bit too beefy.

Some dirt jump tyres come in 24", but finding a tan wall might be hard. Schwalbe table top do a 24x2.25 but not tanwall.

The trials scene still uses 24" wheels too so worth a check.

It’s the skinwall that kills it.

Is the best place I’ve found for a range of tyres.

And rockets Ron’s are great.
