I recently squeezed an Onza sticky finger in a quax 20" profi. I found the central grey compound very slippy on smooth surfaces (ceramic quarry tiles). So fitted a Maxxis maxx daddy instead, much gripier(sp?), cheap and bouncy. The only problem are the black marks left on the kitchen floor and in my copy book

I have never used a onza so can't comment but if you want reviews and opinions on trials tires check out sponge's thread.

Lots of good info there.

Isn't the sticky finger made for 20" rims? Not sure it will fit on a 19" trials rim.

I've used it. Works fine. It's a tire and it acts like it. I like the thickness of the sidewalls.

That sucks you ordered the wrong tire. There is a trials (19") version.
