id have to say Kenda Nevegal if i had to pick one, but once again it is totally up to personal preference. nevegal's have a great tread pattern for wetter conditions, totally depends tho there is different tires that are best for different DH situations

Maxxis highroller NO doubt about it. It can be dry for months on end and the grip will always be there aswell as having awesome acceleration, but then it can rain for weeks and it will be a predictable tyre. People claim that they clog up, but thats never the case, even in thickest muds, you just have to be able to ride fast enough.

I currently run a 2.35 60a rear and a 2.5 42a front, I'll be changing to a pair of 2.5 42a for fort william, but usually I can't afford to run 2 42a as the back wears down too fast.

any experience with the schwalbe space? or continental rubber queen?
at the time there are some discounts on these tires, so that's the time maybe Big Grin

that's for a rear tyre all conditions, i need something which rolls quite fast, good grip and also a solid casing and sidewall as I plan to mount them tubeless with sealant
thanks !
