vs
Tires Maxxis or OEM Honda
I just put some 2.25" Maxxis Ardent TR EXOs on my Trek 29er and they have been awesome so far. Tons of grip compared to the bontragers I had (cheaper ones that came with my bike).
Pros: tons of grip
Maxxis all the way. Seem to be the best combo of grip, price, durability, and weight.
Pros: best combo of grip
Your trails sound pretty similar to what I ride. I have a set of Ardent 2.25s that I really like.
Pros: really like
I love my aggressor on the rear, rolls and grips well.
Pros: rolls and grips well
I also have a minion DHF for downhill and "rowdy" trail or wet/sandy conditions. It rolls a lot better than I expected for such tall knobs
Pros: rolls a lot better
just mounted a few pairs of maxxis tires, dhf, hr2, a dhr, and an ardent exo casings, all done by hand, found them quite easy to mount beads poped right on.
Pros: easy to mount
Me and my girlfriend have both been running tubeless Maxxis folder tires on Easton Rims for five seasons and I never had any problems mounting them.
Pros: no problems mounting
I've mounted and remounted a handful of EXO casing maxxis tires recently with almost no effort at all. Typically I don't even use a lever to mount them, only remove. They all seated on the first try with a hand pump too.
Pros: no effort to mount
Ardent rolls well but is lacking in traction. If you want to take corners fast, I would stay away from Ardent in the front - there is a dead zone between the middle and side knobs that will feel vague especially when cornering.
Pros: rolls well
Cons: lacking in traction
I used to think Honda is great until we had a CRV. It was a piece of crap. It shakes at low speed or highway speed. The dealer was so incompetent and kept asking us to replace tires, wheels all at our own cost but the problem was still there.
Cons: shakes at low speed
Vehicle:
Honda
