Always wanted a pair of speed king
I want new tyres but my wife wont let me after buying the bike!! haha she says “whats wrong with the ones you have right now!? theyre fine.” she doesnt understand ):
I would like a raceking for 29″
Do more of these vids!
Maybe some Specialized, Schwalbe, updated Maxxis….
Yes please I love free rubber .
Trail king all the wayy. Just love it. My style.!
Niceeee!
I recently went through three Mountain Kings within 7 months due to delaminating beads. Went back to Maxxis, always the best tire in the business. Fuck you Continental. No more walks of shame back to the trail head.
I have trail king
I want tyres too!
Love ur vids GMBN!
Need to try the lightest for xc
Nice
Owt for nowt, my kind of tyres. Have been riding with Continental tyres for a while, great job.
Where is the der kaiser tyre??
In Continental’s Case, the Baron is the one who takes the Queen home 😉
Almost bought some Continental DH tires but was told they have tubeless issues and constantly leak sealant. Has this issue been fixed?
I just got the race king’s compared to previous maxxis crossmark on tarmac and in the forest it’s much faster and easier to climb
Would love some of these
What about Der Kaiser???
Do you even ship out to Poland? I bought myself a used mountain bike, and could use me a pair! 🙂
I would really love to try this tires on my first mtb i bought.
Im straight from the philippines. 26er mtb user. I want that tire. ;(
OMG I am so excited. I want a tyres too. Please
Can they fit my bike rim? 26×2.00
Would love to use these I’m too poor to own them in-fact all I want is a amazing bike and to ride for my country but I don’t have that I only have a carerra
I used it all of my three bikes. Mk2 2.4 chili on my FS 26ers, xking for hardtail 26 and 29ers pure grip.chili tech way more solid but expensive.
Through all the years i’ve tried a lot of tires, Conti’s MK and TK are my primary choice for all around enduro. Love them to bits !
Trail king grips amazingly well but after just a short 5 mile ride the knobs were tearing off. Great design but terrible durability. Would not recommend for anything with rocks.
Wish to wear it to my bike
anyone tried the speed King? Seems like a good option for road and gravel. Does it behave ok in gravel?
