Racing Ralph or Razer ?

Running Nobby Nic 2.25`s front and rear at moment and find them excellent. Am considering putting a semi-slick on the rear when (IF !) the trails dry out. The obvious thing to do would be stick on a 2.25 Racing Ralph but could also go for a Panaracer Razer 2.3 which I believe would be about the same size, but possibly slightly lighter, more puncture resistant and a tenner cheaper than the Scwalbe. Anyone any views/experience of both these tyres ?

buy your Schwalbe from Germany and they are FAR cheaper than over here

I'd second Brun's advice,no problems at all with the service.It cost me £44 for a Nobby Nic and a Racing Ralph ,could'nt be happier very quick tyre combination.My Orange Pro: http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/3282429/

The few times i've had them on,dam weather
,they've been great .The added grip the Nic up front gives boosts your confidence.Found the Ralph up front a little slippy for my liking. My Orange Pro: http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/3282429/

I've found the Racing Ralph on the back to work very well with the Nobby Nic up fraont.Even work in mud if you're careful.Can't comment on the Panaracer as I've never tried them.2006 Giant XTC

I`m heading towards the Schwalbe at the moment. Will probably get them from bike24 (it was me who tipped Brun off about them !) when I can get a delivery address away from home to enable `smuggling into the house` if you catch my drift !0
