Unfortunately no, my finances didn't allow for as much travel. My home trails are pretty narrow. One area were are trying to keep IMBA out of since they have messed up other trails close by.
They're great. They're not as great as Maxxis (anything), Schwalbe (anything), Specialized (anything), Bontrager (anything), Conti (anything), Michi, Kenda (are they still even a brand? either way, better than WTB), and probably some other brands that I'm forgetting.
So great, like America Great again lol.
Had to look these up cause I've never seen them in person.
but things get scary on that tire whenever there's dust in the berms.
Just curious. When was the last time you rode a WTB tire? Cause 10 years ago they were garbage but I feel like they are coming up, they've at least passed Kenda for trail tires (still have love for my Small Block 8s though)
Are those supposed to be claws or something? I can't trust a tire design in which the knobs are designed to look like anything other than knobs.New front tire installed today, I like'em knobbies. I've only done a quick shake down ride of no more than 3 miles on it so far but it felt pretty good on off camber rocks and in dusty corners. It feels like a slightly wider, more trustable Butcher GRID of the same size.
They're on the list. Just gotta ride moar so I can wear out the rubber I have
I like it so far. It is def a slow roller, even in the front, but grips quite well. I think I like the TRS+ better still.They're on the list. Just gotta ride moar so I can wear out the rubber I have
Looks kinda like a DHF that might actually work when I pull the sissy levers instead of just doing a crazy skid dance.
DHR2, 3c if you dont care about rolling resistance. 2c if you do. Good for wet but still hard. Packs up with mud easy though.
So is something different about the Maxterra compound between Maxxis tires or OEM/Aftermarket spec?
Maxterra is the fastest but less gripping of the 3c, the center tread are harder. Unless stated or things changed a lot of OEM tires are DC.
No. The fastest one is MaxxSpeed, for XC, then MaxxTerra, for Ndurpo and the tackiest one being MaxxGrip, for DH use.
That's right, you are correct.
....cough...cough.... Gary....cough....But I guess you're somehow right too, nobody in here will go the MaxxSpeed route
Yeah I dont even think about Maxxspeed stuff.But I guess you're somehow right too, nobody in here will go the MaxxSpeed route
No I meant uphill because I just LOVE "technical climbing™"me too - in the opposite direction that the bike is pointing
Just run them in the rear for dry stuff. They roll fast on hard pack and drift reliably in dust. Plus you won't feel bad doing sweet skids on tires you're trying to kill any way.
I'm glad you asked, as its a little known gem called Glendo State Park. 75 miles east of Casper Wyoming. There is camping and 75 miles of rocky as fuck terrain. Its been built by/for the MTB. That was on the climb up to the Feather Rim trail.
Nice. I was just looking at a job in Lander/Riverton area and was trying to figure out if mountainbiking occurred around there or just rock climbing and further wilderness designations. Looks good and rowdy.
Glendo is a lot like Phils in Cortez, no sustained climbs/descents. Lots of 2-300 ft rock garden smorgasbords. And some buffed out pedally stuff along the lake shore. I need to get back and explore more of it. Jackson area isn't a far drive from Lander either.
When Aggressors first came out I ran them front and back. It was good, real good. They were the 29x2.3 DD's, so a little skinny. And did manage to flat the rear a couple times. I think because of too low psi. This was before CushCore and before they came out with the wider size.
That's GLENDO?!? What the fuck? Just drove by Glendo TWICE in the last 2 weeks, and I had always heard that it was buff XC stuff around the lake.
Has anybody seen/heard anything about these new Tioga Glides outside Bikerumor?

Tread pattern looks nice, at least on the renderings
Well, it is buff xc around the lake. But then head down by the power plant and go ride feather rim plus the other dh oriented trails around it. Rugged as fuck!That's GLENDO?!? What the fuck? Just drove by Glendo TWICE in the last 2 weeks, and I had always heard that it was buff XC stuff around the lake.
Fuckers must have been lying to me...
