 :) I run 1.75 f & r on mine,Supercross Bluestreak up front and Tioga Powerblock on the rear.The Tioga is going to be swapped soon for an Intense Micro knobby as it spins in the wet.

Micro knobbly's are shite, don't do it fella.

Kenda small block eight is better.

Personally, I'm running Holly Rollers 1.75 front and rear feels fast  :daumenhoch:

kenda small block 8's at the moment,

does a bit of everything,

lightweight but the walls are pretty anorexic,

roll fast and very grippy on dirt,

cheap too!

not very trendy though :-[

primo dirt monsters remain my a.t.f :smitten:

Maxxis DTH

Was skeptical at first but I have to say.

FAF rolling, loads of grip in the (tarmac) turns and never really slipped on the gate.

I recommend.
