    Still on tire....

    Just go kevlar/Folding tires

    Ive never felt any difference with tires.

    Except:

    kevlar vs nylon vs wire bead tyres
    Slicks vs semi-slicks vs knobby
    1.8 vs 2.0 vs 2.3
    Soft compund vs hard compund
    Mura vs Mahal

    When it come to tread pattern and brand. Wala akong nakitang difference

    roll resistance is ok on roads, knobs are blocky and bi directional but what surprised me was how well it gripped on any kind of terrain considering mukhang pang xc lang siya. i have to check the model this weekend pero yun yung tig300 lang and folding, bang for buck talaga siya

    hehe mali pala grammar ku dapat "well except honda whose RN01 dh bike"

    *maxbuwaya, japanese dh riders are on a different level na, they have riders competing on the world cup, while us well....

    at last naupload kuna pic ng hardtail ku, taken last year after the enduro AR

    hehe i got lucky, that manitou's from the last batch made in the US. performance is top notch but not really made for using 8in diskbrake rotors as the lower caliper mount has already lost its threads, so isang bolt nalang kumakapit sa brake calipers ku kaya always follow factory instructions kung pwede gumamit ng 8in rotors sa forks

    daming maxxis sa cartimar. those in the pics are high rollers, sucks at trails but ok sa road

    I should have taken a pic of my bike a while ago before I cleaned it. Mas madumi pa dyan sa bike ni miLes Went trailing kanina then biglang umulan ng malakas. Lots of mud on the trail, twice akong dumulas.
