I put the 2.25 Magic Mary Soft (slightly softer than Maxxis Maxterra, but much firmer than Maxxgrip) on my 10year old’s front wheel.
Her bike (an ‘10 Epic 29, that I ”Evo’ed” with long fork, 27.5 rear wheel and offset bushings), has a 21mm front rim.
I wanted a narrow tire so that it would still shape up square enough, and be supported well, on the narrower rim.
The Mary was one of the few that were still available.
