Buenas !! Ahora mismo estoy utilizando Specialiced ground control delantero y fast track trasero para una bike de 130 recorrido doble y para senderos y terreno mixto. Tengo que cambiar y pensé en las arden que tal le parece el cambio si lo aconseja o cuál es su opinión. Gracias

How tall are you?

My XR3 has a diferent pattern it has more agresive knobs in the middle, it is quite good on blue trails

Thanks for this info! Are Renegades faster / better rolling on tarmac than FastTracks?

I tried them on my yeti Sb100 for a couple of months and they were good. They did have wobble on both tires so I’m not surprised that you had that. Probably the only tire I’ve had in a while that has wobble on both. Never had wobble maxes or specialized tires and to have both of them with wobble was pretty weird

Will this work for a 9 inch tubeless scooter tire? Recommended 50psi

Solo normalmente he visto las llantas speciized en las bici specialized porque no tengo idea lo más común ver llantas de otras marcas como Maxxis, Pirelli,continental,y etc.

Rekon is great, but then again I have 27.5 x 2.8 plus tires. Not sure I would run the 2.25 for a front tire.

can i put a 29×2.25 on a 29×2.20 wheel

How are they on the street. will they last on pavement?

Hi does this effect the reach? And by how much thank you

Turn off the music…

I just ordered a 2.6 T9 for the front of my Alpine Trail 7. I didn't want a Butcher (yet) but we'll see. Ive got a Dissector in the rear right now, hoping it rolls better than the Vee Tire Flow Snap I've had on the front so far.

i have ridden with the ztto dr190 (non boost) that comes stock with a 54t ratchet. initially with a 120Nm motor, now with a 160Nm. have never broken a 54t ratchet with the 120Nm motor, snapped 3 54t ratchets with the more powerful motor, always in weird situations, propably involving chain slap. the 36t ratchets hold up extremely well though, also they're a lot cheaper

sure not rolling on cornering knobs on that fast trak with 35mm internal rims?

I have two years experience on the xr3. most of my rising is on areas with chunky rocky climbs. the rubber is the softest and stickiest rubber ive had on a tire. great grip on wets roots and rocks

If you're going to use this type of tire you better know how to use those edge knobs by leaning the bike over in a corner. If you aren't confident enough to lean the bike over to engage the side/edge knobs the cornering abilities of this type of tire is going to be lost on you. You'd be better off with the XR4

I prefer the older tread pattern. But these were always undersized.

Try it with a Ground Control on the rear.

I run the 275x2.6 at 22 psi they definitely give more bite Don’t get me wrong they ain’t DHR/F but the difference in weight and playfulness I think is worth it.

How are the hubs? I have a set on a used bike I just picked up

Specialized Renagade, Fast Trak and Ground Control. In that order from speed to grip. I’ve rode many tires, mainly MAXXIS, and these are all ya need for XC and Trail riding 😅

Wheres part 1

Do you have any updates? I just bought a couple of them just in case. Hopefully the Fast Traks will survive the entire season.

Great tire. I am using it as rear tire on my kona unit. Very durable, good traction and speed.

What was your rim width? I've tried the XR2 and those were great.

I feel like this tire must not be widely known, very good tire. I weigh 220 and use the grid trail casing with T7 compound, front and rear in a 2.6w. Set up on i30 rims on a 140 trail hard tail. Never had a puncture with these and have cased on rocks and roots and smacked square edges plenty. Been running on them coming up on a year, the t7 has held up better than I thought for how compliant they feel on the trail. I do feel they favor being more n the rear as they are able to get into and out of controlled slides with grace.

Buy two bucklos headset set for tapered bearing and caps. Inver caps. Onto the forks i used two for slacker im at 64.8 from 67.8 on the Schwinn axum

Thanks for breaking out the calipers and getting the actual width on your specific rim. It's an important dimension and not enough people do it 👍

I have one of these. You are spot on with the mention of the twitchy front end but since Im a BMX racer that dont bother me much but I do use my other bike when Im riding steeper stuff.

Im running the Ground Control T7 front and Fast Trak T5 rear on my Stumpjumper and really like it. I think the Renegate is basicly a "Gravel Bike" Tyre 😄

Gracias por su respuesta !!! Algún neumático que usted aconseje para poner parte delantera que no sea demasiado pesado ?? Poniendo en track en compuesto T7 tampoco sería fiable entonces?? Gracias

Buenas que tal ve estas cubiertas como uso para rueda delantera también ?? Uso xc trai terreno mixto. Pensé en poner delante Ground control pero está igual también funciona bien y ahorro un poco de peso. Gracias

Looks like a DHF .... Run Assegai s F/R You wont Change

Did you notice a lowering of the stack height. Changing angle drops front of bike - without doing trigonometry ( 50 yrs ago) I am not sure how to calculate it.

What sizes of dropper you have ?

Hello, can you tell me which are better between continental trail king and maxix ardent 2.40 for city 50% and offroad 50%

I've only used Speciaized tires for years, they make XC tires that are hard to beat, light, roll fast, climb great, gripton even helps on wet roots etc, the newest Viet Nam generation is amazing, but my lap times go down once they are ridden in, and the little tits on the knobs are gone, then the laps time come down, renegade is a great tire for racing, its doesn't last long, Fast Traks are great on hard pack, Ground controls if it starts getting soft, Annika Langvad has a video about the new tires, I'll post it below, Annika has retired, but she went out soo cool, she did some road racing, and showed them what a real Mountain Biker can do, not just jump over the pelethon. but she kicked their asses, without know how to draft, she just goes FAST, she has more World Championships then maybe anyone, Marathon, XCO, and 5 Cape Epic wins, plus her final year riding road, she is amazing, her words a golden, just cuz' she has so much gold,, check out her video below.. I like the S Work tires, dual compounds, light, fast, sidewalls are more for racing, but great for hardpack trails too, kzbin.info?search_query=annika+langvad+tires

I run it in the front with a slaughter in the back for summer riding. They work great and can climb and corner very well. Super combo for riding fast hard pack and mixed trails on my 150 bike

Great tire

Once you wear the new tires in things get much better, the small tits on the new tires (made in Viet Nam at a new plant) give lower lap times, then once the tits are gone, better everything, the Renegade does good, but it don't last as long as the Fast Trak,, I like the S-Works Fast Trak dual compound T5/T7 versions, much lighter at just over 600 grams, but they have thinner sidewalls.

Hey, man. Question: in the video 3:52 the renegade looks like more wider than fast track. It is really or is just impression? Thanks

great bike! I would upgrade it with 120mm fork and a dropper, a bit burlier tyres...

I got a set of 2.35 to make my bike street and loose over hard ready .. mainly to get exercise around town when I can't make it to the trails.

Thoughts on a fast trak rear, ground control front setup? The Butcher and purgatory setup on my stumpjumper is a little too aggressive tire setup for what i do. Great vid!

what did the old 2.3 weigh in at? Is that the T5 or S-Work variant?

Thank you for uploading this video. I'm thinking about doing the same thing with my '15 Turner Czar. The original headset angle is 69.8°. A couple of questions... 1) why did you decide to go with just a 1° and not the 2° option? 2) Did you feel the reach changing a little too much that now the frame feels small? Thank you

I have two pairs of those hubs. Mine had 36t ratchets. In one of my hubs it failed me the same way failed yours, then I spoke with the seller and he sent me replacement ratchet rings. Now almost 1 year later they're holding up pretty well.

Thanks, short but comprehensive enough.

I also have a Maxxis Aggressor on 27.5 but it is a DD side wall. I drive on the rocky terrain of the Alps in Europe...😃
