thinking of lightening up the ride...

flowtron & marshal:
what terrain do you like the minion & nevegals in?

I'm taking this one.


MINIONS------------EVERYTHING


Literally......dust, mud, gravel, squirrels, corpses, sand, water, nitrogen, plywood, hardpack, shale, human elbows, coral, monkeys


Best pattern ever. Unfortunately the only UST version is a dh super tacky which is heavy and tosses off knobs faster than tijuana hookers on speed binges.

I tried using a regular 2.35 with goo on a tubeless rim but I kept ripping it. Your results may vary.

so far i'm liking the ignitor rear...and i'm thinking about that mod you described, kw... did you remove every other knob from the second (from the outside) row?

You've got a center row with a "v" shaped sipe in it, two outer/center knobs with the same sipe, I removed the next row......the first row of non-siped knobs moving from center to sidewall.


So yes...I think we're talking about the same thing.

If you're sliding around more than you want in the REALLY loose stuff with no noticible hook up angle, give it a try. Otherwise, I wouldn't really worry about it.

yep, that's the one. (i was describing it from the outside toward the center).

i'm definitely not looking to make any irreversible changes until i have enough miles on the new tires to be confiden that that's what i want.

thanks for this info!

If you look at your high roller and notice that open space before the sideknobs, that's kind of what you create on the ignitor. You'll lose a little in braking though.

If/when you decide to do it, get some of these. They'll turn a 1 hour job with a razor and wire cutters into a 10 minute project. Get small ones.
