Types of places i go and what i do on my bike;

At the moment i use a panaracer 1.85 tyre. which im sure everyone is going to :eek:

becasue so do i when im out in wales. Damn too Thin for my liking. So please spec me a tyre around the 2.0 mark. my rear tyre is a specialized 2.0 muddy tyre which i think is great. however i want the best, so if you spec me a better tyre fatter that 2.0 i will just swap them. so fatter at the rear and thinner at front.

Hope you can help. here is an idea of what i do..

Mostly used for:

Afan forest
Cwncarn
cross country

seldem use:

townriding
canal tow paths
forests

This is what i have at the mo for the back;

Specialized Fast Trak Pro Dual XC Folding Tyre

Shall i just get the same for the front or is that not a good idea. Come on you MTB tek heads.
Im going to do a tour of wales in the spring, i really dont want to ride on 1.8 tires thank you very much. :eek:

I will have a look at them, does it matter what goes on the front or back.

I think i read somewhere that they have to be different tread patterns. Am i wrong? if you can use the same on both i will just get the same specialised tyre.

thanks a lot for your input.
I will be getting the specialised tyre as the same on the rear.

cheers
