In reply to: rockclimber posted an update Can anyone suggest a light yet durable tire? ViewHmmmm not sure if those two words should be used together when talking about the life span of a tyre/tire :)
I am presuming you are looking for a road tyre/tire after your earlier post rockclimber?
If so I have seen excellent results from Schwalbe Durano+ foldables.http://www.schwalbetires.com/bike_tires/racing_tires/durano_plus

In reply to: Al Painter posted an update in the group Bike Wrench Tire question, if I run 29×1.75’s with a minimal tread pattern, can I reduce the psi so I get better traction in loose corners? I’ve also got some 29×2.1 […] ViewNice call on the Racing Ralphs Gary, a few people and customers I see use them and swear by them and yeah Al I am with Gary on running such small tyres?Never had much luck running narrow tyres, I tend to stick to 2.0-2.2 depending on conditions. Tyres are not somewhere you want to save weight, find something that works and stick with it :) ”Literally”

I’ve also got some 29×2.1 […] ViewTry turning the tyre around so the tread runs the opposite direction, sounds crazy I know but through experience and trial and error I have found it not always best to fit as suggested by the manufacturer.
Give it a shot and let me know if it changes anything. -
