I don’t know the WTB tires to well, i do have a verdict the one on the pic. that tire i find works ok in wet, sandy or powdery Conditions anything other then that the tire to me feels like it has 10-15Psi i always feel like i have a flat riding that tire. Even with smaller 27.5x2.5 on a 34...

So Just to be clear , the Kevlar bead that is torn is from me trying to get it off. The bead just pull out of the rubber with instant failure and a Big Bang.

spoke to soon, yesterday at SkyPark just blasting berms and rear tire let go with a bang and pulled the bead cord right through the tire. the tire is a year old and has 50% tread warn and has had a pretty tough life and was at 40psi when it let go. She was a loud one.

Oh it depends on season, racing season high 185ish without gear to 215 in off season or i should say Covinated season. Lol Never weighed myself geared up. but i typically ride with just knee pads and light 1.5litre backpack

2.8 Ewild on rear

I can’t give you the answer to that as i do not have a bike with 29r rear i have ridden enough to feel confident in writing a review. All my current bikes are 650B rear and 29 front. race I’m running 2.6 Ewild, Rock bashing 2.8 Ewild or Eddie current. deep soft mud I’m sticking with 2.8 Ewild...

I’m on my 6th rear tire and have t had that happen yet, and my beater bike the tire is starting to check on sidewalks like it’s couple year old tire. Dry cracking or weather checking., tire is just over a year old and pretty warm so I’m not to unhappy. i do a review on the 29x2.6 front as i...

i rode mikes bike and he has them mounted on 30 internals and it works well. He light rider so holds him well. I feel i need tad more sidewalk support so to keep my pressures lower i like the wider wheels better. but it’s much better then MM on a 30 that’s for sure

I was able to buy 2 new 29x2.6 last week Ewild. wild enduro only goes to 2.4

Mine is liable to kill himself one these days. Or he wants me to ship him out

Well the Ewild Beatings continue, after 1500 plus miles on them i have still yet to be disappointed. rear tire has over 1000 miles on it and still holding up well. yesterday was no easy day for that old rear tire as she took on Downieville With fresh 29x2.6 up front. i don’t think i need to...

I don’t know the release date on them. Michelin didn’t say, but rumor says early spring. I think once they get all the data back from the test tires they sent out. If everyone else has had same luck i have i can’t see the tire not ready for final run. haven’t had any issues so far.

I have t purchased a Michelin tire yet. but I’m gonna need some more 27.5’s here soon. Will have to go searching where to buy them.

There nothing like the eddy to mount that’s for sure. I was able to mount the 29er by hand no tools. Taking it off today and turned it to normal direction was easy with just single plastic spoon, that’s on a carbon wheel that eddy won’t go on without feeling like i brake the bead edge
