Hi,

I have a Cube Ltd Comp Disc 09 hardtail and currently have Schwalbe Nobby Nic tyre on the front and Racing Ralph on the back.

I was just wondering if anyone could recommend some faster rolling tyres for the summer months for light off-road and on-road use.

Thanks in advance!

    continental race kings seem pretty good, also look at maxxis larsens and crossmarks or maybe kenda small block 8

    You'll be hard pushed to beat that combo, they're some of the fastest rolling tyres about, any faster and you'll compromise grip.

    You can try a rocket ron though, rolls like a ralph but grips better.

    Furious fred is an all out race tyre at a major cost of puncture resistance, id save that for race days.
    The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it.

    If you are steering clear of gloopy mud and bogs go for the Kenda Small Block 8s. Excellent grip and they will turn your bike into a rocket :D:D:D
