And for the brand I'd suggest the Metzeler Z6 for great all around grip and long mileage life (7k+) or Michy Pilot Powers for more aggressive riding with lower tire life (-5K).
I'm a newbie but I want something that will stick. Thanks for the bold tire size recommendations! ;Dwonderjosh said:word. 8)

RTFM......nice ;DJared McDonley said:How about a RTFM sticky!??!!?
Yeah it just keeps coming up with every NOOB that signs up. I want a 180 or 190 tires cause my 160 looks to girly. And which tire should I get and how long will they last. It's starting to get old.Six Chin Skinny said:I think we're ready for that sticky right now, judging by the many similar tire related threads recently. IIRC it took Avid a good couple weeks of lobbying for the oil thread to get stickied, and it seems to have worked very well. We don't nearly as many oil questions since that sticky was initiated...
if you want a bigger tire you need a bigger wheel.-yz- said:I'm a newbie but I want something that will stick. Thanks for the bold tire size recommendations! ;D
Never said it looks gay, nor did I say I wanted a bigger tire. Just looking for a reccomendation. jesus.Nexus242 said:Yeah it just keeps coming up with every NOOB that signs up.

well you asked what size tire you should get, as if it's not on the chain guard nor listed in your MOM. And don't feel so picked on my rant along with the others is just because you are asking the same question that appears 1-2 times a week and the answer should be by now a sticky thread at the top of the page so you don't have to search nor will have to post the same question that someone else did last week. Now ask a really important question like which oil you should use in your bike.-yz- said:Never said it looks gay, nor did I say I wanted a bigger tire. Just looking for a reccomendation. jesus.
HEhe i like that one! I think I am going to take a pic of the fill cover (says it all right there) and have the mods sticky that!Nexus242 said:Now ask a really important question like which oil you should use in your bike.
