Summer xc tyres

rd350lc

Hi guys,

At the moment I am running a super tacky swamp thing on the front and a high roller on the rear which i have found to be very good over the winter months riding across the moors etc but they are very heavy and really drag so im looking at a set of lightweight tyres for xc summer use.

Now I used to use a set of schwalbe folding tyres and they were very light but I kid you not I had a flat every time I used them which has put me off.

So what i am after is the ultimate set of tyres for xc use which are light, have great grip and wont rip every 2 minutes.

Thank you in advance.

My mate uses Bontrager Jones, he reallyl rates them and he's not had a single puncture that I know of while he's been using them

What High Rollers are you using? The 2.1 62a Kevlar beaded one is only 480g, which is pretty light for a tyre.

I use them, and have been impressed so far.
