Jake. Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 Could have just turned your old thread into an 'update thread'. That rear tyre looks way better in person than it does online, can't believe it's only 695g lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRIAL-bike-MATT Posted July 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 ahh yea i forgot yea i weighed the tyre and it came to 651g, cant wait for the front tyre to turn up, the kinetic looks terrible and huge :L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Arnold Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 what's that front tyre like? looks like a good alternative to the usual.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake. Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) what's that front tyre like? looks like a good alternative to the usual.. It's pretty damn light, isn't amazing with grip but it works. I don't do loads of up to fronts but I wouldn't change it. If I did I'd go back to a moto digger probably. Edit: in fact I can't really do up to fronts haha Edited July 27, 2012 by JMCD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalRobbo341 Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 Personally think you should spray the dt protector, then when the front mag goes on, grind the front rim and get some black tape on there, maybe raw the rims too, don't think it will be too much silver! Other than that looks nice, bet that is a good stem/bar/frame combo too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im gunna take the dt protector off i think spoils the look of the bike, yea im tempted to raw the rims but i reckon there would be to much silver ahaa.

ClarkeHutchison Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 (edited) Hows the rear fat albert peforming, i was deciding between that and the maxxis swampthing. I went for the maxxis and on my first ride i got a punture, it seemed very grippy but a bit slow when rolling up to things. Just want to know your opinions of the schwalbe. Very nice bike Edited August 9, 2012 by ClarkeHutchison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azarathal Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 I love my fat Albert, grips better than my kenda kinetics, bounces better, rolls better and it's almost half the weight. Had it two months too including riding 3 days solid at radfest without puncture, I know Joe maher went for more than a month (last I heard, may be longer) solid riding without a puncture too. Worth every penny. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
