Surly Krampus Tire Swap

[@jarvisskooge8602]

I love the 3” tires on my Krampuses… yeah I have more than 1! Problem with the Dirt Wizards is that they are HEAVY… good video!

I have this friend from a bike shop who offered me a pair of Surly Dirt Wizard 29x3.0 tires for only ₱1,000. About $20. Its brand new because the knobs looks fresh I can even see lots of hairs on the center knobs. Im so excited to put it on my trail bike ☺️

Cool video, The WTB's look sweet. Just subbed.

Hey Jamie, what's the fit like with the surly front rack? I'm trying to get one onto a grappler front fork (which I think is similar to the krampus fork) but it's super tight and presses into the fork a lot.

[@jamieroszel]

It's tight, even with some washers as spacers. I'd go with something from Old Man Mountain. I've had my eye of the Elkhorn from Old Man Mountain, as it will fit without any fit kit. I haven't personally used it, but it seems like a great setup, as the same rack can be used front or rear. Also, check out my Ghost Grappler rack setup in my other video kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3ixe6xoeqt0haM. Hope it helps!

@@jamieroszel thank you! Great content.

I looked everywhere for Ranger tires, but nobody had them. Ended up with Rocket Rons in the interim.

[@jamieroszel]

Oh, I've never used those, but I have a set of G Ones on my Canyon Grail and love them. I can see myself using that brand quite a bit in the future.

[@mazditzo]

nice sharing, please make a video about first impressions of krampus and detailed view between 3” and 2.6” tires on both ends really want to have this bike but need alot of info from other owners before investing heavily 😀

What kind of rear rack is that?

[@jamieroszel]

That's the Surly rear rack, which didn't quite work perfectly. Because of the Boost spacing on the Krampus, the rear rack is a little too narrow. I widened it and added a few washers to spread it out.
