Hey all,,,
My schwable Rocket ron & racing ralph are coming to an end of their life... Great tyres and they have both served me well on the rear of my bike... Gonna order another Ron from onone as they are in the sale, But it got me thinking to what is the fastest rolling xc tyre that actually can handle some trail stuff now and again

What about small block8's? fast just not for mud
Now for sale Fatty
Surprisingly grippy and blisteringly fast! Certainly not a wet tyre though.

look at the prices. if you want folding then they're quite similar but the wire on (which i have) are a great price
Kenda's Small Block 8 is another good one, the 2.1 is just as fast as a Crossmark (as far as I can tell anyway) but a bit grippier. Slightly weighty though, it's a fast trail tyre not a race tyre. Flipside of that is that they're tough, and they last forever.

not so sure they'd be all that good on the trails though!!

I never got on with my Race Kings - squirmy on the corners no matter what pressure I tried, and they used to puncture something chronic (8 in one ride was my record). Switched to Ralphs and they seem much better tyres.
