not a retailer link off the top of my head (maybe try go-ride), but BTI shows them: http://www.bti-usa.com/public/category/TR/TRTS/MA/MA204?page=1#MA204 and any LBS can order from them.

oops, I forgot to mention ust as well. I have a pair of highrollers from a few years ago that are 2.35, super tacky, silkworm, ust. They have a flexible bead which I assume is Kevlar and feel somewhat in between a 2 ply dh tire and a 1ply xc tire. I'm looking for a matching minion dhf to run up front. So far I haven't found such a tire. The closest thing that I've seen has been 60d rubber.

Do they still make them like that? Could be better as a rear.. You don't have a weight figure, do you?

Good info!

Will check out the Bettys for sure, thanks.

i've been using big betty's on everything for the last season (after a few years of using c16/24's religiously). they've been surprisingly good in a variety of northwest conditions / seasons. the harder compound can be a bit sketchy on muddy roots, but (obviously) has better longevity on the hard / dry surfaces. so far the best weight to performance ratio dh'able tire i've found.

not sure about in the us, i think you can get them in the uk

i can get them in indonesia for sure. 2.35 HR super tacky ust. dual ply.

not the same as the single ply xc stuff.

all the ust tires have kevlar beads.
