i love having chunky tires, removes the gap for foot jams. i run a 2.4 fit faf on the back and a 2,4 odyssey hawk on the front. the fit faf is a good inbetween for street and dirt and the hawk is a really grippy tire on the street
I used to run 2 different tires, also. Skinny in the back to get moving quicker with a wider knobby tire in the front for steering. Used that set up for Racing and trails. Times have changed though. Lol
Another great video. I keep seeing a bunch of tubeless mtb tire videos pop up.
I use tioga streetblock tyres in 2.25, mainly ride park but occasionally dirt and street. Really wish they made this tyre in 2.35-2.4
When you said y’all rode dirt and street that was the same with us growing up sometimes we didn’t really care and rode whatever we had then it was just fun hanging with the guys
cool video. i have 2.25 odyssey paths but I want to get 1.85 maxxis soon
Skinnier rear tire. With higher pressure and a faster rolling design. Wider grippier front tire with less air.
Adds built in suspension without giving up too much rolling speed. And adds a bit of extra grip up front if you do hit dirt occasionally. But also means foot jams and Vader scuffs don't murder your tires as fast.
I run the Eclat Morrow 2.4... I only got them cos the shop had run out of the tyres I ordered, the Cult x Vans waffle tyre, but they seem to be great
I was a BMX rider forever and the worst thing I seen come from tires was the half street half knobby tires.... I slid out and got hurt so many times I stopped riding them and went w/ high psi street tires. I love 2.2 120psi tires and I always will... I'd run it a little lower and they never pinched or rolled off like 2.4 low psi tires I've had recently.
Bmx companies are a joke, honestly.
Which tires are you talking about that are so bad?
Just ordered some rant squad tires so exited to put them on
I'm running BSD Donnasqeaks 2.4 Alex's signature tire.
I just bought a bmx bike, thanks for your very informative video uwu
Im currently running Animal GLH 20x2.3" at 45 PSI both front & rear, I ride on street all of the time. I think I picked a right one.
I have the Primo Ritcher 2.4 front and rear. Love them. But they don’t make them anymore so the next time I’ll get Animal GLH.
I run the Merritt Phantom's and I LOVE them!
I realy want them tires but im worried there to wide lol.are they realy that wide ?
@@benjiize they are, beware.
Odd/aitken 2.125 front & odd/atkin 1.90 (20's).
Eclat Mirage 2.35 Foldables
I ride street tires on dirt, gives me the best traction.
Shut up
Lol just kidding
@@brodydawson6200 he prolly isn’t 🙌🏽
Are you kidding or not?
use both
I used to run that same tire ratio ,dirt n street.
I ride the Odyssey Dugan tires
I plan on getting maxxis grifters in 20x2.40 soon. I’m currently running the stock kink sever tires no hate on them but they aren’t my personal preference.
Actually I’ve seen a lot of dudes riding dirt with street tires. Everything is usually so smooth and kept up you don’t need traction. I don’t ride dirt so I can’t say form personal but that’s what I’ve noticed from watching riders. Like I’ve seen quite a few people ride dirt with the Cult Fast and Loose tire.
What about schwalbe big Ben?
My BMX has a dirt tire at front and street tire at back aswell
Atm I use a tall order wall ride 2.35 front I find it too grippy bug it’s good all round street dirt park and maxxis rear m-tread rear 2.20 and it’s ages old park and street not so much dirt but skids under load turning very hard waring tyre it’s took many of hard slams 👍
I have the cult/vans in 2.4. I like them. Grippy but don’t slow you down. I just went up from 2.2ish tires & I was surprised how different the width made.
I rode the animal ASM way back in the day, really wish they would bring them back
I too have the cult vans 2.40 tyres but they are slippy for our parks. Switching back to demolition momentum cause they grip better
@@averageslytherinperson6154 I’ve ridden with people who have those & love them. I switched to odyssey path pro & they are grippy as hell !
@@ryanoconnell6617 i like the odyssey s too. But having rode on demolition about 2 years ago, they felt way better than vans and i m just waiting them to arrive
I think specialized should make a 20inch 2bliss tires for bmx.
Fly bikes Ruben tires👌🏼
Donna squeak 2.4 on the front Mac two tire 2.2 on the rear
Whats the best fast rolling 20x1.95 tire?
Riding WTP trust with 2.35’s
I got a Sunday scout! What’s the best dirt tire brand? I live in the country here in Texas lmk
i suggest demolition momentums, very versatile and stable on every surface. also very light lol
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll check it out :)
Have you tried elcat creature tires
So can I run a 2.35 on a 2.3 rim?
Did you say Alienation might have ACME Carbon colors in the works?
If my rim is 1.75.
Does anybsize tire fit it or is it only compatable to 1.75??
Aitken dirt on front demotion machete on rear!
Primo dirt monsters for trials , primo vmonsters for street and park
All I wanna know is what grips slick metal ramps
How about tires for mags such as Sky tuffs? Some brands center better than others.
@mikefede do more archive footage!
I'm running maxis grifter front and rear on my BMX and I'm running schwalbe big Ben front and rear on my DJ. If they had schwalbe big Ben or tabletops in 20" I would run them on BMX too.
Wow
Please tell me about big Ben. Which size and are you satisfied? Are they fast or heavy and slow?
Are big Ben real fast? And will they be fine in dirt and mountain?
@@magnumllama400 the big Ben tyres are fast. They're pretty comparable to the Odyssey Aitkin, grip and durability wise. I run the green guard version
@@andrewsiasparks how heavy, what about dirt? How fast and what's like accelerating from stop
i ran a 1.75 front and rear. I rode a 2.125 once and hated it. I raced and rode trails so I would run conventional Knobby tires and maxxis max daddy's
1.75? the grip is enough for asphalt pump track? bmx and 26 dirt bike?(both)
I like a slick tire great at rolling fast but don’t ever hit a wet or oily patch cause you lose all traction.
Any bike tire will go down on wet and oily patch because they're shit
I ride maxxis grifter 2.1 for park riding no dirt or street
What about schwalbe big Ben?
Odyssey Aitkens
Is 20x1.95 good for tricks?
Send some of those maxes tires
I ride 24 x 2.5 maxxxis hookworms but I heard they are getting rid of them. What is a good alternative?
I have the same size on my Gt Pro Series 24 "
They are Gt Smoothies 24x2.5
Pretty awesome all around tire ! So I'm guessing that 1 replace the ones that you have now
I would like something lighter , with a little more tread for wet/ muddy roads 😎
Yo uso llantas animal una MTT 2.35 front and rear a animal ASM 2.25
Bike Tire 16" x 2.125
Can somebody help me,my brother have a bmx 20x2.30 tires,and he want to order new tires only avail. is 20x2.40 and 20x1.95.which one do you think guys will fit his bike,btw he have mags instead of rim.thank you!
I have a bmx bike and it comes with a 1.75 but i was wondering if i can change it to a 1.95
More volume feels good to me- I say do it, if your chainstays have the room. Which riders do you look to for inpiration? What do they use? I'm looking at Jared Graves and Barry Nobles- I see Nobles uses 1.95 front and 1.75 rear, if memory serves; I'm looking at Holy Rollers as a good compromise between dirt and street, for all around speed and flow, and puncture resistance. I like how they break away progressively, when taking a turn past the limit. The Hookworms, too- They're amazing on the street. Heavy, but they absolutely haul ass and turn on rails... and progressively break away and recover predictably. Anyway! I hope your season's off to a strong and healthy start.
I run bsd donnastreets never failed me but not ideal for dirt
what tire can i use daily?
if my tires are 20-2.35 can i use 20-2.4 tires on it
On my bmx I have 2.3 and 2.2
That 195 looks like a schwinn scrambler tire lol
I'm looking for a pair of used old school tan wall Tioga Comp Pool III tires in black. How much should I expect to pay? Thanks!
No reply lol
@@brodydawson6200 You replied! Lol
What’s the width of your frame ?
4:22 points
this video is all over the place
I feel like the 2.4 won't fit. Are bikes design different these days I have a GT from 1988. Also if you have brakes?? Are there new brakes?
I'm running 2.4s on an older BMX (don't know the make or year, it's definitely heavy and old-school though) and it does fit, but I have about 1/4" clearance or less to the brake arms and frame. If you can do a tight setup it works, but if you anticipate bent rims it will be frustrating. I just cruise and do drops and have 48-spoke wheels so it's less of a concern. Also, maybe obvious but wait until the wheel is secured before fully inflating it, you'll spend less time resetting your brakes.
Maxxis hammer
Riding Theory 2.4"
I ride a 43 pound 2003 pro team condor on Alex supra g 48 primo 1.95 85 psi , also have and use hb rotators and skidmarks all in 1.95 but they all 120 psi , when I land flat no squish rims. Call it blow em up fu*k off hard 😂
You didn't talk about TPI and it's importance.
Bro what's bmx prize
2.4's are too damn big. 2.2 is kind of my ideal size, but I'm currently running 2's since it's the only ones I can find in blue w/ tan skinwalls
I just want 2.5 hookworms :(
Too bad that don't make the maxis rizzer anymore
Rim need to be lined up in the frame
Tioga Comp III 1.75 front 1.5 rear or gtfo.
Amateurs I'm riding 1.74 in front and 1.95 back
Me who rides 2.8

*BIKE SEATS END ALL:*
"Turbo saddles wr king. Hard seats better."
Not so fast:
Best cushion ever made was humans muscle. Dogs foot under thin elastic skin.
High thread count tire carcass deform waaay better over road reduce vibration transmitted 2bike/gigantic energy lost.
Knobby tires will average 8mph on a 30 miler fireroads over a mt. Where slicks will average 12mph.
Few people evr experience such LOWEST roll resistance tires.
Parts that (actually) wrk = big money they keep u on endless tire shopping spree knobbie tread goose chase.
Tire shall be slick period.
Demons turn engineering in2 endless merry go round new&improve sucker bait.
Yr engineers wr 2dumb2get it right th1st time? Ah i see.
They deliberately engineer hidden demons. Keeps next new factory stocked.
Try a plastic or carbon flexi carcass saddle mirrors Brooks with silicone gel over thin hard foam topped with elastic polished thin shiny leather or vynil shade net.
Clear silicone = highest quality gel.
95% "gel" saddles corrupt deliberately compromised dry porous "gel."
Not all silicones pure either.
Just as days'v Noah 80% humans nephilem spirits = demons Satan place in human body with Hadron Collider hive mind cmouter cntrolled = yr corrupt goose chase merry go products they magicians cmpared2 u.
Reptilian angels cntrol all demons. Your solar system used2b heaven. Satan:
Jesus elder brother ruled creation u live in false reality he rule with cmputer.
Can hack reality.
People curse defective products those curses pwrful prayers if any1 rip u off simply send angel 2that cmpany.
Seats shud be quick release like click in pedals.
Just like when I designed brake lever shifter Dual Control 4Shimano overnight incinerated shifting wrldwide hasnt been improve evr or since.
My Dual Control I built in garage 80g would last lifetime 10 parts counting washers.
Shimano:
Cost fortune heavy as a tank
gadjillion teeny parts utterly impossible repair roadside.
Gel:
I had REAL gel seat, then every1 i got after was lousy corrupt "gels" bcuz gels WORKED.
Asians:
Predominantly Satans DIRECT DNA when he mate with Adams1st wife Lilith who had almond eyes. Asian culture admit: They descend from dragon (Jesus elder brother.) Who still serves Yahweh lol& puts all who reject Yahweh in h*ll. Burning his kids is a FOOD 2him. Theez Asians think he gonna bless thm.
(Yahweh turn Halayel ("Satan") in2 humanoid scaled black snake with wings = now he cant mate anymore (Genesis 3:15.)
= He why he preserve his bloodlines2 oppresses others.
Satan putting all his biblical tare race in h*ll now.
People'v become label humps specifications eliterate utterly disgustingly imbecile its terrifying they want chocolates& flowers advertising. Whatever caters 2their dillusional version of reality gut feel like Ed Van Halen did with his 1st Tesco Del Rey bells& priddy looking whistles guitar like we ALL do when day1 batsht novices.
Ed had a brain& a good1 he learned = Ed built his own guitar.
He knew better Satans a$$holes designed them ones on th shelvz.
Get back 2square1.
A Bicycle:
Point A point B straighline carry sduff. Just as MUCH sduff as possible. Period.
= Must be STRONG STRONG STRONG perfect ONLY handling.
= NOT a$$up bent way over2narrow bars whippy spaghetti tube flexi frame.
Handling:
Low CG wide stable triangulation bars not thdiametric opposite = 10speed "road" bikes with deadly teeny tiny itsy bitsy yellow polkadot 160psi tires rolling under horrificaly crippling dangerous ergonomics narrow bars& sphaghetti flexi frame members.
ALL road (motorcycles( shud look like a SUPERMOTO = epicenter motorcyle.
*& bicycles MT. BIKE ONLY.
Back in thday Lucifers kids used racing& hero appeal glorify/decieve shthed idiots in2 humping worst piece of cycling engineering evr worshipped that killed crippled millions while crippling ergonomics = road bikes.
Satan HATES bicycles cuz they free energy deletes his money so he glorified idionic 10 speed.
Perverted Mt. Bike racerboy concept however made bikes handle

Big thank u 2them.
People are idiots cant connect dots 4got thquestion manufactures quick2hump theez clowns made gut feel racerboys they president.
I am not a race I'm a worldleader&bicycle = point&shoot carry sduff on safest ergonomicaly PERFECT bike built2last a lifetime.
Motocross/supwrmoto bike = perfect riding position.
Modern Turbo saddles:
Best saddles of our modern era.
Very thin hence highly elastic leather over foam FIRM foam. Leather is great.
But when used wearing SILICONE gel shorts u could go 3 centuries on that hard little Turbo.
Gel done correctly is king not Brooks rawhide
Cow skin:
Varies in quality4godsakes just use a piece of any# STABLE gadgillion choices u have in plastic.
All a Brooks saddle is is a piece of rawhide engineered 2mimic plastic.
"Oh but it conforms sooo perfectly 2 yr own anatomy" lol so does plastic minute u sit on it = what a car tire doing a gadgillion times a mile whole Brooks cult snobbery thing a liddle batsht looney somem1 ask
"Do Brooks saddle get heavier in thrain?"
Ofcourse they do they a 3/16 " leather sponge. Even if u treat top, water gonna splash up from bottom soak yo a$$ &that sponge of a seat.
When i leave leather glove in rain = bad it begin digest th leather = tear easier.
Brooks state:
"No, Brooks saddles should not get heavier rain because they should not be ridden when wet. However, if Brooks saddle does get wet, it can be allowed to air dry naturally will be fine. Riding Brooks saddle during heavy showers or storing direct sunlight or heat for long periods can damage the leather.
Likewise, the material we use will not be affected by rain. Cambium saddles are also available in a carved version for riders who seek to reduce pressure on the perineum or desire a more flexible saddle."
Again put some silica gel over thin flexy durable plastic topped with 5mm glued on dense memory foam cover.
Use 2 - 3 layers durable material say 2mm uv stable vynil shade net u will have th overwhelming epicenter of all saddles.
There always1 in every crowd:
Any1 saying "it doesnt wrk!" in comments = same "always subjective" person sdarting an alternate reality company with a few thousand people always willing2 5star Amazon review lunacy.
Nobody noticed most importnt thing.
People choosing identical basic characteristics/shape seen predominant now.
Same as 3 of 10 seats i test won a shootout recently.
Same bascic firm foam& SHAPE.
There is MORE 2 this SHAPE then u people are grasp = I bought THREE seats Amazon while back held same pattern ($35 for 3 saddles.)
My favorite BROLEO: With artificial fat/memory foam gel chro molly rails, SHORT nose 240mm& BIG CUTOUT = save weight 228 grams wider then ave. SLOPED SIDES left/right coupled with short nose = roomy standover/easy mount dismount VERY IMPORTNT.
...&YOU CAN CONSTANTLY MOVE AROUND ON IT EXPLOIT ITS FIRMNESS 2both REDUCE FATIGUE IN HANDLING THBIKE DISTRIBUTE PRESSURE POINTS simply balance better. Hide appropriately THIN&ELASTIC.
AND slippery = allow perform constant precision gymnastics.
(I also chose wide nose PTERSTY saddle & BEIDUOYANG $12 a piece.)
1.95s roll way slower. Your friend doesn't use proper pressure. No one in bmx does. The tires and rims aren't even designed for how people use them. Look at how often trials riders get flats compared to street bmxers. Also that's why everyone went brake less. Bmx brakes are a joke. Trials bikes are so much better.
1.95 is faster then 2.4 etc because there's less rubber touching the ground. (Less friction)
if trial bike is better do a 360 manual on it)
I get a flat literally every time I take my bike on the street and it's starting to piss me TF off
What's the point of your symbol in your hat? is this racism, or just hatred?
It’s the American flag! It stands for neither of what you mentioned. Go kick some rocks🤣✌🏽🇺🇸
@@MikeFede Just say what it really means: "The White Live Matters" symbol of racism and division. You dared to wear it... but you slow to accept? here kicking some rocks 🦶🏈🤣
The American flag represents all nationalities and if it represents racism why do millions of people from other countries and nationalities want to come here? and what does this have to do with bike tires ? I'm glad you judge people by color jackass..
is 1.75 tire good for bmx?
No. Too narrow, too high pressure required. Even if you go to their minimum pressure lesser suspension will wear parts faster, especially the wheels. You will also feel every jump more.
