Forekaster/Rekon was a great setup all around, though I found myself on the edge of grip when really pushing it downhill. We’ll see how this works in SoCal in the springtime.
Very nice! Definitely will feel a touch more draggy overall, but xynoyals are great tires. I personally love it as a rear tire in particular
Forekaster/rekon is my favorite fast/light trail tire combo, but it definitely gets skittery when pushing hard downhill

Ditto, rekon wasn’t doing it for me for my riding style. Had an epic ride with a long descent and threw a minion dhr and love it. A bit squishy on flatter terrain but I’ll take it for when it gets steep
High desert Rockies area

I run these on my Tallboy and the grip they offer is great. Even slightly inflated above normal (30 psi) seems to grip very well.

Continental for the win I’ve been using them since 2015 and now I won’t go with any other brands
