What tires would you recommend for a dedicated pump track bike?

GotMojo? · May 30, 2007

OK, I am going to take somebodys suggestion (from my pump track thread) and get some faster rolling tires for my pump track bike. Right now I've got Kenda Kinetics and the large knobs are are really shredding up my berms. So, I've been looking around and its hard to decide what to go with. I'm thinking something with a smooth center section and some smaller knobs on the sides.

What are your thoughts?

I'm wondering if the Kenda Krisp might work...

maxxis larsen TT, kenda SB8, maybe a atomlab comp 3 with a smoother tire in back

I currently run a Kenda Small Block 8 in front with a Kenda Short Tracker rear. The combo works well and rolls fast or you can go with SMall Block front & rear.

Kenda small block 8 in the front with a smaller sized k-rad in the rear for acceleration.

if it was really a dedicated pumptrack bike, you obviously want as smooth of a tire as you can get...

Thanks for the input everybody :thumbsup:

Here's what I ordered...
Kenda Small Block 8 in 26x2.35 (front)
Kenda Short Tracker in 26x2.1 (rear)

I will let you know how these work out...
