Jeff Slavens posted a new video on the X31 front last night. To sum it up, his new favorite front tire.
Cool. That’s how I feel too
I have the irc volcanduro ve33s on mine and has been the best tire I've had even though it will wear fast. Ive got like 75 miles on them on rocks sand mud roots from high country to desert and holding up great with absolutely amazing traction with around 70 precent life left on the rear
Nice review. Thanks ✊
I loved the X30 front on west coast hare scrambles and gp's where the dirt is mostly hard pack with some sand and rocks mixed in. The offset knobs always tracked really well at speed on hard pack. I will miss it.
I loved the X30 front on my YZ250 here on the east coast here in Canada. Mainly hard pack, loose rocks. Excellent steering input with great wear characteristics. Super tire for riding fire roads.
Right on!
Great review , and info ! Thanks for your help on the phone today ! Re questions about
Piston on YZ 250 ! Really your time and effort👍
Great talking to you
Had issues with starcross 5 rears chipping and throwing knobs. The old bridgestone m 402 used to be my favorite rear to run, it worked well on soft and hard pack including rocks I'm finding the x30r just as versatile.
My favorite all around rear on my TX 300 has been the X40 for several years. But now the cost is a real concern. I tested the Tusk hard terrain rear and it was 90% of the quality of the X40 but at half the cost. That's a pretty decent tradeoff for my B offroad racing.
Followed your advice on the m59 and x30 and have run them on all my bikes for the last year or so great tires well worth the extra money now I'm forced to spend some cheddar on that 31 front
Yep. I think you’ll like it.
Great review, i have the x30s fitted now and they are very good all around tires the front is a little numb but stable, the rear is awesome , the x31s looks like wiil be next !
i also can't wait to see what you think about the starcross 6
The X31 front is a lot better than the 30 front.
🔥looks like some awesome trails, they are great tires🔥👊🔥🏍⚙️🔨
59s were my old go to, interested in your *cross review says. Purpchases used 18 300xc with STIs? on it and Hate them. Plus, Dorthy Mantooth is a SAINT.
STI is absolute junk!!
Impressed with the Bridegeston X31 front, if only Dunlop could make a front tire like this (love the MX33 rear but the front only hooks up when starting to slide...which is really odd)
I hadnt run a Dunlop front since the 756 when I got the MX33 front. I think the knobs are so tall that it squirms around. Once it's pushed super hard that's when the grip starts to kick in. It became obvious to me when i lost my back brake and was able to ride at near full speed on just a front brake. Really. Weird. Tyre.
Good review. Did you ever review the starcross 6 ? I can't find it.
Not a full review yet
What size mousse do you run?
Michelin Starcross 5 medium 🥇
How was the rear as far as cornering? Would you consider this tire one to leave on year round for trail riding to some hard enduro etc.?
It’s very good. Will work in most conditions and hold up much better than a gummy
@highlandcycles which rear tire would you recommend for east coast single track (rocks, roots, slick stuff, hills etc)...The X31 or Starcross 5 medium rear?
Oh man. I don’t know.
I know you've ridden our race in San Manuel, AZ which is the terrain I ride. I've been running the X30 90/100 up front paired with a 220 Ride semi-gummy rear. It's been a pretty good combo but the front can go away quickly at times. Would you guess to say the X31 would be better for my terrain vs the X30?
Yes. The 31 is better. I would also consider the 80/100. Won’t float as much but sometimes that’s good. They tend to dig in and bite better for me.
@@highlandcycles Thanks. I think I'll give the X31 a shot.
Would you run X31 front for a week in Death Valley and surrounding desert areas. Mostly offroad
Yes
Big fan of the x40s but I’m currently running x30s that I’m not too happy with
All depends on how and where you ride
Yupp when I was in az the x40s did well in rocks and the wet
Hey Morgan did you compare the GT333 to the Kenda Equilibrium ? we're having so much trouble with these starcross 6's down in Australia on the rocks :-( Hoping the MX34 is going to be a winner.
I’ve not tested those
No worries, I just saw that you had a 2015 blog article testing Kenda Eq. which mentioned the GT price as well. Looks like you said it wore too quick after riding with it at plateau. Cheers.
@@Superdisco199 yeah. That was a long Time ago. I never really liked the Kenda. It was ok but didn’t work in the mud or soft stuff. And I never ran the GT because it was too expensive
have you run a IRC VX30 front? if so how does it compare to the x31
Yes. It’s not terrible but not nearly as good as the 31
Which size were you running on front? I wish they made the X31 in a 90/90. Might have to try the 90/100.
80/100
@@highlandcycles What size mousse for that?
@@baldknobby NM18-305
@@highlandcycles No, the front one, for tbe 80/100-21
@@baldknobby sorry. NM21-220
X40 for me all day
Great tire
I’ve been eyeballing the x40 how is it vs 31
what size front did you run on X31?
80/100-21
What size nitromousse for the 80 size X31?
NM21-220 is what I run
@@highlandcycles Thanks man! 🤘
What size mousse do you run front?
Nm21-220
Thank you. What brand do you recommend?
Nitro mousse platinum?
@@Norcal2stroke that or the new mousse balls.
Mousse Sizing is my question too. The M59 calls for a nm21/235. Is the X31 the same carcass
@@Outdoorjunkie246 Yes, the tires are The same size.
I think I need some Dramamine…
Hahahah. I know, not super exciting. But there are folks out there looking for this info.
I meant the 1st person shooter vibe, like I’m watching call of duty.. a stabilizer gimbal for your camera would make your videos easier on the eyeballz:) you can get them cheap on Amazon… just added an x31 to my cart
@@seamarsh3756 gotcha.
Now, get out and RIDE YOUR DIRT BIKES!
Yes!!
