    I for one miss having a pizza cutter skinny tire in the back.. 1.95 used to be normal for a back tire.

      I just went to 2.3" front and back (2.38" inflated). While it does feel better in the front, it does feel a little slow in the rear

    2.5's would be good for hucking yourself off a roof, but do feel sluggish and less responsive. They do also rub on grinds. Surprise to see Devon Smilie with big ass tires. He rips though.

    • @badfourlife
      @badfourlife 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The fact that tires stick out more can sure save hubs/spokes though.... If it's a smooth sidewall it will still grind quick as well.... 2.3 is enough for me though as I got 4140 hub guards

      Interesting points! Clearly if riders run them and still do wild stuff it must be alright for something.
      I had that 2.4 in the back and didn’t hate it at all. The only thing I ran into was clearance on my older brakes

    @alonsoescala4902 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The reason cuz of the 2.55 thing is because mainly when a hard street rider tackles his wheel being the tire so fat it will rub on the sides so being that wide of a tire stay prevents and ensures that you'll have less trouble with that, so mainly is to worry less and ride more i guess (?)

    one thing i did notice is Supercross bmx,carbonfiber stem sold out,even though people were hate/not trusting in the strength. bring on the 2.55 tires best way to deal with some of the new geo frames are big fat tires,even though alot of the riders i kinda know like the trail geo,or are putting a smaller rear tire to rake out the front.
