They're the Schwalbe super tyres at the moment. Well thought of and regarded. My boy is still a Conti boy through and through though, it would take a lot to persuade him to change. Well, that is, on his DH bike... on anything else he quite frankly doesn't care even a little bit, or indeed notice. He just nails it into the corners on whatever is on there.

Apologies for photo quality.

German company and a prototype, number 2, but they think it'll be in production this winter.

That reminds me (a bit) of the Empire Cycles MTB’s.

One winter ride on the Sarf Dahns would quadruple its weight!
