Exclamation *NEW* Try-All Stiky LITE and SHIFT tyres... (read in!)

I am surprised that word hasn't gotten to the uni world yet. Anyways in short, 19" tyres now have an undisputed king. The lightest tyre, far lighter than a Monty EC, and has thinner sidewalls than the original 19" Tryall Stiky.. So far from bike reviews, the new 19" Lite is much much better than the previous in terms of bounce and responsiveness. Oh and you shave a load of weight. Weight weenies and people looking to enhance the ride of their trials unis... look in.

The 26" tyres are in 2.5 and 2.0 ... These have kevlar walls, and the construction quality is very high indeed. The 19" sadly doesn't have kevlar walls but that's due to a different type of construction it has. However, these are now quickly becoming the most desired tyres in the bike trials world. The price tag is high though.


26" Stiky Lite 2.5... w/kevlar
(969g!)



19" Stiky Lite 2.5
(888g!!)



^the 19" is the widest tyre of all 19s. It's bigger than the Monty EC and about 4mm bigger in every direction compared to the original Tryall.



Enjoy
and be jealous.

(I wish I had one)

Very nice!
But i wonder why the price tag is so high? £50 for a tyre seems a bit steep to me, thats a quarter of what my uni cost?

They sure look great, but if the grip/shape is like the old Try-All's, I'd rather try out a MEC after my white Try-All has worn down. I felt a drastic fall in my skinnie abilities when I changed from CC to that..

Lighter weight is good, thinner sidewalls... I guess I will have to try it before I knock it. Probably won't need another trials tire for a few years though.


I thougth that you started a thread about this a while ago. Maybe it was another of the bike trials guys, anyway looks like a cool tire.
