A few Mountain bike XC tires to consider
Fahrräder, Tests, online, Rezensionen, Bewertungen
My .02 on a few Mtb tires that I have ridden in the past and a new one that I recently placed onto the bike. I did not mention that I believe that all established companies that produce mtb tires have good products. (Same goes for all sporting goods equipment) I do not believe that any one tire is significantly better than another. It comes down to what application you are using it for and personal preference. For this tire setup: WTB Bronson Race 2.1 front and Panaracer Fire XC Pro Kevlar rear. If you ride typical XC stuff (aggressive), I have found that this combo hooks up quite well. Very predictable and recovers well when the tire breaks traction. Check it out!

I have been using the panaracer fire fox for almost 6 years now to be honest I am kind of finding it hard to change want to try something else but dont want to get stuck with a tire I dont like the panaracers are light and durable I only ever got one flat with them on my 4th set now they do last quite a long time

I guess it's a matter of taste--to some extent--but for me 2.4 or 2.35 is waaaay wide for xc riding. They are more appropriate for downhill. The rolling resistance is going to be pretty high on xc trails. I actually tried 2.35 in a Maxxis Instinct (discontinued long ago) and found it very slow. For xc riding my preference is 2.1 with an aggressive profile for the rocky trails in my area. Are tires of that width being marketed for xc riding now? Either way, I would not go that wide for XC.

have you tried flipping your fire xc pro in the rear? to the direction "front"?

thanks!

how do you like the Bronson now after having it for a while? do you ever ride a wider front tire? i was thinking a Bronson 2.1rear and Bronson 2.25front. In your opinion is it worth it?
-
i got a Rapid Rob Perfomance 29'' x 2.25 What you think of that tire? Im only going Road and some small offroad at the moment. What you suggest for my situation? Also in my country/town there is high possibility of rain etc in that situation i need to buy something more specific? Thanx in advance

yes I use nevegal 26x 2.1 up front and a nevegal block eight would like a little more traction on rear without loosing much resistence any suggestions?
-
I use the Kenda Nevegal 2.1 front and rear, you are correct, they are a slow rolling tire on hard dirt or pavement. However, the area I ride in has a lot of water (streams and mud holes), dirt mixed with clay and several short and steep climbs. Under these conditions the Nevegals work great.

Thank you for making this video!

sounds like somebody is torturing kids in the background

For all mountain, marathon or multistage racing like " La Ruta de los Conquistadores" or "BC Bike" I used WTB veloriraptors. Strong tires with lost of grip. For racing XC Racing Ralph but beware of corners and side walls. It is just for racing.

Thx dude

I don't get the OCD obsession with weight, unless you are in competitive racing, but if not, what does it matter? Just ride. I do get the traction/mud shed analysis part of the vid.
