Ketchup, OTOH, can rot in hell.

I do, but only homemade.I too love mayo on fries.
you guys really are like shooting fish in a barrel most of the time.
yes, 26". I looked into mailing tires to the US from Canada. It's $30, so for the most part, not worth it. But I'm headed to Vermont on the weekend of Sept 21-23 and can mail it then... Here's my buy n' sell on Pinkbike (I have a bunch of tires for sale) : https://www.pinkbike.com/u/slyfink/buysell/
27.5
All around tire, would be rear mounted, running a DHF on front, will take a gander at the Aquila
Will consider this as well
Thoughts on Michelin tires?

Interesting. As far as I know, they only make them in one compound, and two casings (EXO and DD). They are certainly not as grippy as a DHF/Butcher/G5/Aquila clone... But I don't think they're meant to be either. They are definitely a rear-specific tire in my mind, for someone that is willing to trade off rolling speed for outright grip. They also have that very pronounced channel effect when cornering, so to make the most of them, you really have to hammer them into a corner. But yeah, tires are certainly a personal thing, no doubt.
Wild Rock'R 2 gets two thumbs up from me.
I second the e13 TRS, I like it much better than any of the Maxxis or Specialized offerings I have time on. IMO it is a better front tire than the DHF.
dammit @I Are Baboon now i want to take a nap
kids back in school (finally) today. trying to plow through some crap at work. have an offsite meeting at 3:30. still stoked from mtns ride yesterday. need to clean the grit out of the bike at some point.

anyone out there in hiking monkey land have experience with oboz footwear?
I've ordered the Wild AM 2.3 and will likely mount it soon for the rest of the riding season.
I wish those came in a 2.5.I second the e13 TRS, I like it much better than any of the Maxxis or Specialized offerings I have time on. IMO it is a better front tire than the DHF.
Have you seen one in person on a wide-ish rim? They are quite meaty for a 2.3. I like it better than DHF 2.5 WT, it corners better and rolls faster.

I find it is much more predictable to corner with. Let's me know when I'm on the edge of traction and when it does breakaway I have never completely lost it. The DHF was more nebulous feeling in corners/on the edges and when it broke I would lose the front end.
it's a toomah!747SP is a cut down/shorter 747, so it already looks funny. I think most of them are gone now or got turned into private jets for the .001%, but Pratt has 2 (I think) for testing engines. This one has the growth sticking out from the old First Class cabin area, the other one they just R&R the #2 engine with what ever they are trying out. Somewhere I have a picture of that one too, with a noticeably larger #2.
my younger brother enjoys merging into traffic a lot more in his audi than he did the landcruiser.....needless to say his driving style was the same in both.
So much fun. New girl is OK with roughing it & super chill.
Was kinda jealous of all the mountain bikers out. I need to get my bike out before the winter is here.
curry mayo ftwI know right... its fucking disgusting.
My thumb breaking crash this weekend occurred when I washed out into some loose stuff. The tire was actually controllable enough that I was in the process of recovering, when I hit good dirt again I had too much steering angle and the tire got ripped off of the wheel. There was sufficient force to take out a few spokes in the process. I may have been better off with some shittier tires.

Took kiddo on another trail I built with him in mind. He thanked me.
Ordered to bike, too.
Good day.

Gasp! A 29er.
And tubeless to fucking boot.
Well, sure...eventually.
One of my hiking buddies uses them and loves them. He has been trying for some time to get me to use them.
This pretty much sums up my weekend
Except it is going to be a 16 year lagavulin, and a macanudo Hampton court

Good to know. Google says they seem to be well reviewed. My wife is in the market for a new pair and found them to be the most comfortable.
I looked at what it would take to build my own oven. Basically a lot of Money....
