Hi all. Riding a commencal meta power 29er with stock tyres (schwalbe magic mary front / hans dampf rear, both 2.35 super gravity). Want to switch to maxxis assegai 2.5 DD casing upfront and maxxis dhr 2 2.6 DD casing on the rear... Problem is I cannot find that rear tyre in stock anywhere!
I'm considering trying the EXO+ casing as the rear is available in that version, but I wondered whether people know whether it'll be a big step down from the existing super gravity / proposed DD casing? My reason for upgrading is that my existing tyres squirm ALOT no matter what I try, and just don't give me the confidence I've grown to expect whilst riding maxxis in the past, especially up front. For this reason I don't want to go to a tyre that is fundamentally incapable of fixing this issue! I'm planning to run Vittoria Air Liners, so perhaps that would make the exo+ run more like a DD?
THANKS FOR THE HELP!
