Correct, me too.... with both radials more than a tyre it seems a fork/shock upgrade, or maybe a handlebar with more damped/muted feel. E specially at the rear, an albert gravity radial 2.5 instead of a DHR DD 2.4(almost2.3)... feels like upgrading to a much better shock.These feeling are in standard trail sections, dry with bumps, rock, stones and so...

Hi everyone, I wanted to ask for some info and share my experience with Maxxis/Schwalbe radials… (Spoiler: not the ending I expected!) I ride a 360° e-bike for trail/AM and some bikepark. Initially, I ran the classic Assegai 2.5 EXO+ MaxxGrip / DHR 2.4 DD MaxxTerra. (I'm not an aggressive rider pushing hard; I tried the DHF but it’s not...
