No, I just think you lot down in the fat underbelly are naturally softer, we, up in the frozen north are have a higher threshold to wet and cold.cooldad wrote:Yeah I just figured you must have moved and forgotten to update it.

Did you buy the Hans Dampfs in the end? If you have then care to enlighten us on how fork clearance is with the 2.35 version please?
I have one but I am a bit wary about whether it will fit. Don't want to go through the faff of trying to set it up tubeless and finding out it won't fit my fork. Already have a Nobby Nic 2.25 on front and back which seem fine, but I'm hearing these come up big, especially on narrow rims.0 -
fitted the hans dampfs and there is plenty clearance on front but not to much at back.tried them at newcastleton at weekend and they are a great improvement on my captains.massive improvment on grip and the way they clear mud is very impressive.you do notice a bit more rolling resistance but nothing to worry about.all in all a great set ot tyres for £50

I have some lovely summer tyres. Fast rolling numbers. Good on hard pack dirt & dry rock.
Thing is, I only used them twice this year.
My new policy is to ride wet/mud/winter tyres all year round.
Oh, and, Conti, Black Chilli.0
