7/29/2026 10:46am Basically if you struggle with side knob roll the DHX is for you. If you don’t and the DHF works for you, keep enjoying the classics. The DHF is still a super fun tire in the right conditions, the DHX just delivers more consistency at high loads and high speeds, so if you don’t have these conditions the difference between...

7/29/2026 10:53am 1- Some pros like the 2.4 DHR for looser conditions on the rear. 2- Most that have time on the DHX end up running it for most conditions. Some have very particular terrain conditions when they would go for Assegai, mostly when it’s really loose. Some just choose the Assegai because they don’t want to recalibrate tire feel. 3- DD...

7/29/2026 10:17am Any questions about the DHX or updated DH casing let me know, both were my projects. In general the DHX does everything our current dry tires do, but has more capability for high load high speed conditions. I designed it to excel in the bike park oriented World Cup tracks but still not give up performance in soft or natural...

7/11/2026 10:05am Gave the Romy another try as a rear. Gravity pro, soft casing. There is very noticeable break down on the side knobs and braking edges after one 25 mile ride; at this rate it will be completely toast in under 100 miles. Super disappointed, I won't be buying another Schwalbe at least for the rear for the foreseeable future...

7/9/2026 7:04am If you zoom on your phone you can see the boost bro tread pretty decent. Modified and rotated center knobs on a 2-2-2 pattern and the side knobs are very consistent similar to a reshaped assegai. I’m Thinking edge like a minion rolled over but with way less transition space so most riders don’t get as scared from the “wow I’m still not grabbing” long as hell to engage float - less float before hooking into that wonderful edge. Should be a really fun and probably significantly faster than assegai, but still have that heavy DHF leant over hold.

7/2/2026 6:43pm I think calling what that guy did a garage bodge job is insulting to both that user's ingenuity and craftsmanship and as well as garage bodgers everywhere, who would view that as far too sophisticated.

6/29/2026 4:11am I think I'm done with Schwalbes on the rear of my ebike. I got 4 weeks out of this one at ~15,000' vert per week. Soft is fine for my pedal bike which only gets 1/5 that much distance.

6/25/2026 7:56am The DD Dissector in DD and new MaxxTerra is likely the best bet. TB00700500 If a 2.5" width suits your terrain better the Aggressor could be a good shout too, but is a bit heavier. TB96870100

6/25/2026 6:20am I felt the answer about the price was a little weird. They're not trying to recoup any costs, so they're implying it's a construction/materials thing that makes the price. Again, 350s on a bike of that price doesn't sound like it's a spec choice, and hearing that price isn't a reflection of R&D just makes it raise the question further; Where on earth is this price coming from if NOT R&D and pro-team economics? It certainly isn't the spec. Loved the video otherwise, thanks a ton Jason.

6/21/2026 12:09pm What are people running for summer trail tires? I just switched to a Dissector V2/Forekaster Exo+ combo. Thoughts: I forgot how good Maxxgrip is when its new. I was definitely getting squirrely off of the lips of jumps for the first few runs - I'd gotten so used to the radial front that my brain had to recalibrate. I was pretty confident on the dissector right away. No vague handling characteristics, no washouts, solid cornering in dry/loose conditions. Curious to see how the forekaster holds up in the rear.

notseanday Added a comment about press release Lenz Sport Leviathan 32er - Cross Country Trail Bike
6/6/2026 9:38am I’ve been riding one for the last few weeks. At 6 foot I chose the 480 reach and the geo has overall been really good fit for me. I’m slightly over forking it and the HA feels about right and I don’t have any complaints, but it’s within the capabilities of a angle adjust headset to dial in if needed in the future for sure. overall the combination of high stack, relatively long rear, and the extra stability, lower rolling resistance, and grip of the 32” wheels ends up being a pretty convincing package for a trail bike in my...

6/4/2026 4:09am Thank you to whoever recommended the High Roller for Colorado trails. This might be my new favorite front tire.

6/3/2026 6:17am MaxxTerra High Roller 3 would be great for the e-bike crowd. Race tires are cool, but e-bike tires are (I’m guessing) what pays the bills.

6/3/2026 4:58am Yeah the HR3 being such a race oriented, mixed conditions tire the priority specs were the high grip options. Because this tire is so good in the dry and dusty conditions as well it's on our radar to look at a more durable option at some point. The new pattern will be a hit hopefully; it's been a bit of...
