    I was a BMX rider forever and the worst thing I seen come from tires was the half street half knobby tires.... I slid out and got hurt so many times I stopped riding them and went w/ high psi street tires. I love 2.2 120psi tires and I always will... I'd run it a little lower and they never pinched or rolled off like 2.4 low psi tires I've had recently.

    Actually I’ve seen a lot of dudes riding dirt with street tires. Everything is usually so smooth and kept up you don’t need traction. I don’t ride dirt so I can’t say form personal but that’s what I’ve noticed from watching riders. Like I’ve seen quite a few people ride dirt with the Cult Fast and Loose tire.

  • @bmxriderforlife1234
    @bmxriderforlife1234 2 года назад +10

    Skinnier rear tire. With higher pressure and a faster rolling design. Wider grippier front tire with less air.
    Adds built in suspension without giving up too much rolling speed. And adds a bit of extra grip up front if you do hit dirt occasionally. But also means foot jams and Vader scuffs don't murder your tires as fast.

      More volume feels good to me- I say do it, if your chainstays have the room. Which riders do you look to for inpiration? What do they use? I'm looking at Jared Graves and Barry Nobles- I see Nobles uses 1.95 front and 1.75 rear, if memory serves; I'm looking at Holy Rollers as a good compromise between dirt and street, for all around speed and flow, and puncture resistance. I like how they break away progressively, when taking a turn past the limit. The Hookworms, too- They're amazing on the street. Heavy, but they absolutely haul ass and turn on rails... and progressively break away and recover predictably. Anyway! I hope your season's off to a strong and healthy start.

    • @garretteverett2613
      @garretteverett2613 Год назад +1

      I'm running 2.4s on an older BMX (don't know the make or year, it's definitely heavy and old-school though) and it does fit, but I have about 1/4" clearance or less to the brake arms and frame. If you can do a tight setup it works, but if you anticipate bent rims it will be frustrating. I just cruise and do drops and have 48-spoke wheels so it's less of a concern. Also, maybe obvious but wait until the wheel is secured before fully inflating it, you'll spend less time resetting your brakes.

    1.95s roll way slower. Your friend doesn't use proper pressure. No one in bmx does. The tires and rims aren't even designed for how people use them. Look at how often trials riders get flats compared to street bmxers. Also that's why everyone went brake less. Bmx brakes are a joke. Trials bikes are so much better.

    • @XxdarkentityxX
