Orbea Rise, replacement tyres

[NorthernBloke]

Any thoughts on a rear tyre for my 2021 Rise, original rekon (not great) was swapped for the front dissector and this is looking very worn.
Looking for a general trail tyre, capable but not too soft. Not too soft, not too heavy a good all round tyre. Not a great amount of stock out there tbh.

what tyre did you put up front ?

I ran mine with Dissector up front and DH2 on the rear and found it a great combo for loam and hard pack

I’m currently on Magic Mary / Big Betty on different wheelsets, and although they are great downhill in the mud, they’re very slow and hard work on the climbs compared to the Dissector / DH2 combo

I've been using Mazza front and Agarro rear, good compromise setup for the rise. so much better rolling rear. I'd like to try the martello on the rear but hard to get them currently

I really liked the Rekon and Dissector, but during winter have been using Spec Butcher T9 front and rear. Now I have Vittoria Barzo and Mezcal in TNT ready for spring.

Don’t over tyre guys! Light and playful thats why you chose the Rise right!

Bbbbbut they also won’t puncture as easily and have more grip on the slippy stuff although still never enough

I'm thinking I'll just keep running dissectors and just put the new one on the front each time.

My mate has Assegais front and rear on his Trance (it came like that) and they are wearing well.
My Trance has Assegai front, Dissector rear. 1300 miles on lots of flinty trails, very little wear on the Assegai but the Dissector on the back is nearly goosed.

Eliminator Grid Gravity T7/T9 weighs 1350 grs., I have it on both wheels and it is very durable and rolling.

In my area we are some riders who enjoy a Maxxis DHF for rear use.
Good rolling with good grip.

I am using Conti Kryptotal front & rear in trail form with rear insert in woods over tree routes etc love them

Ermmm I was swayed by Vittoria claims on low rolling resistance so went for the mazza e rated tyre.
Front ok in 2.6 put the same on the rear It was all over the place. Then noticed I’d put the poxy thing on backwards

Will report bavk when sorted but I’ve buggered me knee so will be a while. Not helpful that really is it

I’m absolutely loving the continental kryptotals. Front and rear, not too heavy, loads of grip and very tough! I ride in a flint rich area and every tyre I’ve used up until now have had a load of punctures.

I swapped the "instant death on anything other than dry" factory tyres for a MM/BB combo in soft compound. They are draggier but it's an ebike so...?? Only possible downside would be a bit of a hit to the range, but went out yesterday without fully charging and had more than enough for at least 40 miles with a mix of Eco/Trail and small amount on boost.

 

[Busengineer]

Ive gone DHF 2.5 Exo front and DHR 2.4 Exo+ rear, loving them so far much more confidence inspiring in a typical british winter conditions

Looking at those kryptotals, which casing version did you go with? Trail, enduro or downhill?

Currently running Schwalbe Super Gravity Magic Mary/Big Betty 29x2.4 Super Gravity tires. PIA to seat even with a compressor. I had MM/Eddy Current Rear 29x2.6 which were easier to install. Also running Tannus inserts. Normally run Maxxis on everything but trying something different for a bit.
