| K2 Zed 5.0 |
Issue #87 |
| The Zed 5.0 is K2’s second-in-line hardtail, keeping with Dirt Rag’s effort to present affordable “blue collar bikes.” I was determined to put as many miles on it as possible, at the expense of my own, now neglected, mounts. by Joel Kennedy |
| |
| WTB Nanoraptor 29 |
Issue #82 |
| The Nanoraptor is the only mountain tire available for big wheeled mountain bikes (see the Vicious Cycles Motivator bike review in this issue). Getting that first "mountain" tire was crucial... by Karl Rosengarth |
| |
| Kenda Kolossal DH Tire |
Issue #80 |
| With its 2.6" width and the required meat of a downhill tire, the Kolossal name fits. The casing and sidewall are thick (comparable to the Nokian Gazzaloddi). The tire comes in two durometers: medium and hard. by Pete Weir |
| |
| Tioga Factory XC Fat 66 Tire |
Issue #79 |
| The tread pattern is not directional and the knobbies are evenly spaced. The compound of the tires is soft enough to be worn out if you put in a lot of road miles. Acceleration, turning, climbing, braking—it was all there. by Scott Nogrady |
| |
| Continental SurvivalPro Tire |
Issue #79 |
| Designed for superior traction in the most demanding conditions. (I was looking in the tire pile for something with sharp, pointy, wide-spaced knobs for some spring mud riding.) by Maurice Tierney |
| |
| Geax Beaumont Tires |
Issue #78 |
| The Beaumont tires from Geax (gee-ax), an extension of Vittoria tires, are their high performance all around trail riding option. They are a front and rear specific tread combo that share a near identical outer knob pattern. by Adam Lipinski |
| |
| Geax Hook and Warp Tires |
Issue #78 |
| Mount the Hook 2.0” on the rear and the Warp 2.15” on the front. Pay attention to the arrows, and get the rolling direction correct for “soft” or “hard” trail conditions. by Karl Rosengarth |
| |
| Nokian Mount & Ground Tires |
Issue #78 |
| I’ve only ridden these tires a few times, just long enough to realize they kick rump. Picture this: 12 inches of snow followed by two weeks of below-freezing weather. Next, throw in 24 hours of rain... by Karl Rosengarth |
| |
| Hutchinson Alligator |
Issue #77 |
| I’ll keep this simple: the Hutchinson Alligator is a very good all-around tire. My test ride is long over, but I’m still hoarding these tires for myself. On both the front and the rear, the Alligator inspired confidence. by Karl Rosengarth |

| Continental Twister Pro 1.9 |
Issue #77 |
| These Kevlar® beaded gems tipped the scales at 428-448 grams, so it’s safe to say they’re light and minimalist. Still, with such a light, resilient sidewall, the feel is supple, if somewhat twitchy. by Chris Cosby |
| |
| Bontrager Jones ACX 2.1” Tire |
Web Article |
| This tire is the lightest and most versatile of the Jones tire group, which leans towards larger volumes than past Jones incarnations, now with 2.1" and 2.2" offerings. by Thanita Adams |
| |
| Michelin Comp S Light Tubeless Tires |
Web Article |
| Weighing in at a respectable 675 grams, this 2.0” tire has some real tread. This is not some shaved tread semi-slick, but more of an all-purpose tread design that works well in anything but the muddiest conditions. by Chris Cosby |
| |
| IRD Carbon Pro Riser Bar |
Web Article |
| This $95 carbon bar weighs about 180 grams (660mm wide version) and provides a 1.75" rise, which winds up feeling comfortable without feeling flexy. by Chris Cosby |
