vs
Tires Maxxis or Sava
I only did a couple miles since adding them, but the difference is insane. Rolls like a road bike, but with WAY more confidence to go over anything. I can send it into a 90 degree road turn at full speed and it's not even pushing it. They're fast.
Pros: rolls like road bike, more confidence
I run Maxxis Razr AT’s. Highly recommend. Live in Washington so I get all kinds of weather. They’re killer in snow and rain. Smooth ride and look great
Pros: killer in snow, rain
Best all-round trail / enduro tires imho: Maxxis Minion DHF (front) and Minion DHR II (rear). I run 2.5 and 2.4, respectively. Get the WT (wide trail) variant if your rim inner width is 20+mm. Dual compound good for durability. The DHF has great breaking and turning control and last me 100+ hrs. The rear is great for techie climbs.
Pros: great breaking, turning control
Cons: Not super smooth for XC
I've ran a lot of tire brands and always have the best performance from Maxxis.
Pros: best performance
Once I got some Maxxis suited to my riding style/terrain it felt like a whole new bike!
Pros: felt like new bike
Maxxis creepy crawler in 20x2.00 it has a low ass pressure ceilin but it has grip for days
Pros: grip for days
Cons: low pressure ceiling
Maxxis Grifters. I’m 18 months in on them as a 1-2 time a week rider. No visible wear or pinch flats despite running low psi. They last forever and are grippy af.
Pros: grippy, long lasting
Cons: no cons
I ran a maxxcross on both front and rear - rear first, before I upgraded to a 16" + shinko 525. Its not a bad tire at all, and if you're looking to keep the weight down on the stock rim then I say its a good choice.
Pros: good choice, keeps weight down
Cons: not a bad tire
I tried the Rekons. In the EXO casing. Lasted about 2 months before it succumbed to our thorny trails. I loved the speed but hated the grip on our dry loose over hard.
Pros: loved the speed
Cons: hated the grip
I've tried the Ardent in a 2.3 width as a rear tire, and wasn't a fan. It was prone to breaking loose easily in corners with little warning.
Pros: fast tire
Cons: prone to breaking loose
