I'm just about to buy some new tyers for the year.

The question is what would people reccomend between the schwalbe muddy mary and the big betty?? Also, can anyone tell me what the gooey glue option is?

I'm currently running schwalbe's nobby nic's, these have performed brilliantly until it starts to get really wet, they can deal with most things but I do find that they don't offer really good conering grip which is what I really want. I'd like something that can deal with most things as I mainly consider the stuff I do is freeriding but it needs to deal with some down hill abuse aswell. Also I'll be doing a tubless conversion with them as well so something else to consider.

Thanks in advance.

    Err why muddy marys or big bettys.

    when you have Light AM/XC tyres?

    MM are a DH mud tyre BB are also a DH/FR tyre

    are you wanting to to add about 1KG to your bike? (if not more).

    what is the bike?

    My ride is a cube fritzz. Origanlly an AM rig but I've beefed it up and I ride more FR/DH.
