I have been riding my geared 26er with a Muddy Mary Freeride Gooy Gluey 2.5" tire for a couple of weeks now.
Weight wise that tire is a better choice than the DH version but I seem to get flats a lot more than previously. So maybe the DH one would be better and or a DH tube instead of the normal Schwalbe No13.
Just letting you know there are reasons not to go too light.
I do like everything else about that tire.
Oh, and nice paint job, Corbin! I prefer the red one, though.
It fit a Duro but not my Gazz. My Gazz might be a bit stretched out as it measures at right around 3.2" on my rim. I sold my Duro to a friend along with my old frame that fit my tires this summer.
THAT sir… is a very sexy muni!
Haha i have a we delema
I have a nimbus 26" and am looking at getting a new tyre. I currently have a Duro Wildlife 3" BEAST.
I know its alot of info but its worth the read, there are some good reviews in there.
I don’t know what the Rubber Queen is like but some people rave about it! Its only like 800grams! It was measured to be about 2.8inchs! Even a tyre that wieghs something like 1300 grams will be a improvement I think Boffy, still look at decent volume. Mybe a Maxxis High roller- Something like 2.5-2.7 would be good, not as light as the Rubber Queen but still much lighter! If you get a high roller look for the softer compound I think as thats the grippest (but it will wear a bit quicker). Also you want two ply side walls or bigger I think.

I like it so far, its great to go able to go faster down bumpy tracks and still keep some stability from the big tyre and rim. With the 125mm cranks my max speed so far looks like 12mph and a comfortable speed is 9/10 which is about 3mph above what i got on my 24" with 3" gazz and 150mm. I can’t ride some of the stuff I was riding 24/150 before, slippy muddy downhill and big uphill, but I’m going to give it some miles on 29/125 to see if i can adapt before i try again with 29/150s
Sweet thanks for that! I love the look of those ECHO TR pedals! That is the colour I want to get them in to Apart from the scratches on the side does the paint seem durable?
There is no paint on the sides:p It’s anodized, I can see that the color is getting away a little bit on some places. The paint is not a good reason to not get them though!
