Tires Maxxis or VITOUR

Rekon is fantastic front tire for light trail/technical XC

If you know how to handle your bike the rekon race is fine up front. I raced that with an aspen out back at the 50 mile xc race up in Bend where it was dusty all day. I was also passing many people on the downhills.

I ride with 2.35" tires front and rear on my Ripmo, one that's a little beefier up front (Schwalbe Nobby Nic) and something that rolls better in the rear (Schwalbe Racing Ralph).

The bike came with Maxxis Assegai front and rear and for the first few rides I regretted getting the bike because it felt like such a pig. The lighter tires make pedaling on flat sections and climbs *so much* more enjoyable, and I can still push it on the descents.

We have Vitour Galaxy white stripe tires on our car in 185/80-14 size. They are affordable and works very good.

Maxxis Victra kuys if palit. Makapit sa basa at tuyo wag ka lang mag kakamali dumaan sa paint.

I also run 60 on the pump track. I notice the sidewall rolling over and you can hear it scrubbing when down at the pressure I dirt jump with (35). You'll have a more confident experience with the higher pressure forsure.

Ran maxxis holly rollers for years, and recently got a set of billy bonkers and I've been very happy with them.

They look better than my Vitours I bought in may... 90 minutes of track day time and 7 asphalt autocross events.

I came across the Vitour Galaxy R1s — they’re V-rated, which is cool, but I’m not sure if they’re DOT approved. From what I can tell, they’re made by a South African brand (possibly China-owned) and seem to be geared toward drift/race use.

Just wondering if anyone’s actually run these? How’s the grip and overall quality? I’m aiming for a tire that can handle daily driving and still be fun in the corners without dropping $500+ on Avons CR6ZZ

Vitours are terrible cold and don't work well if your car doesn't generate enough heat.

Maxxis have become worse and worse in my experience. I switched to Conti tires, they are soooo much better.
