I’m running the 27.5 X 2.6 on my hardtail. There is less of a tread pattern difference with the fatter tires than with the 2.4 which I’ve used with success in the past. I like that I can get them cheap from CRC. No one seems to stock them here in Whistler so I’m happy to order them in myself. The other thing I like is that they are frickin straight unlike a number of Maxxis tires I have had.
