Guys,

I am turning my bike into more of a trailbike. I have 2.7 minion full DH casing tires front and rear right now on the bike. I just got my 2.35 single ply minions from UPS. I am running the front tubeless and I am thinking about leaving the 2.7 on the front and going 2.35 in the rear until I can order some more Notubes sealent to change the front to 2.35 also. Will this make the bike feel wierd for the week or so that I will be running the setup? :help: Thanks.

Livin it up in the O.C.
Shouldn't, but IMO I'd either change both, or neither still.

The front is a DH worthy Beefy 2.7, which is fine for agressive riding, but that might kill your singleply rear. OR... Your singleply rear is good for trailrides, but the front is gonna be REAL heavy.

2.5 and 2.53... cool. 2.7 and 2.35 is a little much.

Then again, I pounded the HECK out of some 2.35 SP highrollers this weekend and no flats. Just keep them pumped WAY up.

Thanks guys. I will wait for the Notubes to make the switch. Bullcrew, how much do you weigh? I weigh about 180 but I am hoping that the 2.35 singles will hold up.
