Peter Wright Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 I need a new front tyre. Something super light but with a really low height in tread as i have clearnce issues. I could grind, sand it down some if needed i guess. What is there as i have no idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welsh beef Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 If you go on tarty bikes you can get a maxxi creepy crawler for £19.99 they have guite a thin tred hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6ft-midget Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 I take it that it's for the Zhi? Try the Maxxis Larsen TT or the DMR moto digger both have a lower tread pattern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornwall15 Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 hi there you could go on tartybikes.co.uk and buy a try-all super slick which is the lightest tyre you can get and has no tread, which is surprisingly grippy. They retail at £30 i believe. cheers Ollie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say get a second hand Try-all stiky front tyre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skoze Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 Try the Maxxis Larsen TT or the DMR moto digger both have a lower tread pattern. Don't do that. They're f**king tall, i couldnt fit one up front with a try-all rim and Zoo forks when i had one, wouldn't clear the forks at all! And that was coming from High Rollers and Minions.
