MrBob wrote in message ...
... If the dirt sections have loose dirt, this setup will probably not work, as the tires fattest possible tires will be too thin. When I wrote dirt I meant very loose dirt. That's why my 1.5 slicks where too thin. I mean, it was like thin loose dirt, like riding on sand roads. Maybe I am not explaining it very well because my mother tongue is spanish. Anyway, using higher presssure tires with suspension seems like a good way to gain speed. The reason most don't use suspension forks is weight and that you loos some acceleration. This guys rode the 415 km in 19hs last year. I'm training to try and get a top 10% position (I guess if I just finish I'll be top 10, since only 15 of 120 finished the two laps last year) |
