REEEEEAAAALLY sticky front tyre 2.3"ish

[wynne]

Related to my pad talk, I just wondered if anyone has a personal recommendation of a really sticky front tyre for hitting the North Wales slick rock in the winter?

Thanks

Rich

Black chilli Continentals seem to get good feedback. Need to be the Protector ones though.

Maxxis Minion Super Tackys. So sticky that when you ride on the road it feels like you've got your brakes dragging

You could also check out what the Trials riders favour, stuff with cool names like Creepy Crawlers or Sticky fingers.

Tartybike.com is good for all that sort of stuff.

This is what I use on the front of my Giant and I find it totally confidence inspiring going down, a bit of a pain dragging them round though but worth it imx

Thanks for the recommendation. Got me one ordered to try it out.

I've always got on with super tacky Maxxis tyres. I'm not normally a Minion fan, but my dual plys were superb at Antur the other week when it was a bit grubby.

I've also found my Trailstar Hans Dampf's to be pretty good too if you want something a bit lighter.
