Do I stay with Highroller 2.5, or do I change over to Wet Scream 2.5.

I've already got the tyres it's just picking between the two as changing them when I get there wastes ride time.

    I'll have both with me but I would rather get there with the most suitable set on and the others in case. I'm riding the DH on saturday so I can change them at work tomorrow.

    It's that i'll be getting there just before the uplift starts and don't want to waste the first run changing tyres. I'm thinking it will be rather moist and change the the wet screams before I head out.

    If my experience last week was anything to go by, I would stick with the high rollers.

    even on the wettest day, it was only really one section in the middle that got soupy.....(after the road drop, into the woods, triple drop). Both my mate and myself were on HR's and they were the very thing for the job.

    The top stayed in good condition as did the bottom.

    we did take supertackys (michelins) but didn't need them.
    Whenever I see an adult on a bicycle, I believe in the future of the human race.
