Be wary of cheap Schwalbe tyres, they have a million different compounds and
their cheap ones are shit.Thanks for this! I went for the EVO snakeskin models in the end as it seems the entire world shares the same opinion of Schwalbe's "Performance" compound.
I'm now rocking a 2.35" Hans Dampf up front and a 2.25" Nobby Nic out back. The difference is huge yet exactly as expected; this setup rolls much easier but is noticeably less grippy in comparison to the 2.5" High Rollers (with their "3C MAXX GRIP" compound). Suits me fine!
That said, the High Rollers are now going spare if anyone fancies them before eBay.
