Anyone know where to buy a set of the DH 24a/t 2.5 soft compound? Canada won't have the wildrock R until sometime in 2011. I have looked on the buy sell here and pink bike but nothing local and shipping these heavy tires cross country is cost prohibitive.

I'm also interested in one or two of these, need the UST version (if they made both UST/tube versions).

How are these in the wet/fall weather?

Price for one?

The traction is high. Rolling resistance is high. Flat resistance is high. Durability is medium. How about $50?

I used to run them on my AM bikes to make them fell a lot more DH'ish.

I think it's worth chiming in that the 2.2 Comp 16's are pretty big, certainly a hell of a lot burlier than any other 2.2 I've seen. I can't imagine using the size up, those things must be friggin tanks (unnecessarily so, IMO).

i use the 2.5 comp16 for most of the season for local riding on my STD, but for Whistler they tend to be to squirmy in all but the most wet of days..

lots of rolling resistance to be sureā€¦
