  • The sidewall of my rear tyre decided to give in today.

    I'm thinking I should get a new wider front tyre too (406). Would like to try and fit a 40mm in the back. I think a 2.1 or 2.2 front tyre could squeeze in under the mudguard.

    Someone happy with their tyre combo? Matchy logos are.a.must.

    I guess Maxxis do lots of bmx tyres. But don't know what to put on the rear. Would like something fast. This baby only sees dry and wet tarmac. Except for that occasional odd place one sometimes finds oneself. It has done single track. But I wouldn't account for any of that in my tyre choice.

    Stock Omnium mudguard? My 2" Big Apple just about cleared in height but it nearly touched the bridge for the stays.

    Have you discover the joys of re-radiusing yet?

  • Yes, stock omnium mudguards. We'll see what happens and what needs to be done. Not sure how re-radiusing plastic guards would work.

    You have a 2" tyre in the back? Under the stock guards?
