  • Yeah 2.2.

    Need to go wider. But that wasnt the issue, which was that I lost my eear tubless and so was just getting pinch flats as the pump I got was terrible.

  • Ikon and Ardent race are my favorite tyres for distance down here but wider and with more meat on the tyre as well for teh drainage bars and terrain up there. Loads of riders were having tyre and brake issues though. Just reading Jenny G had identical issues. Thats a massive ride to finish and amazing to do it so quickly in those conditions.

  • Yeah drainage bars are death.

    Everything was made hard by the fact I've never ridden a mtb before!

    I hear wide rims are the thing, around 30mm.
