about the same I guess my luna bounces better, but I thought of changing it because my maxxis is starting to crack really bad, so should I just wait till it blows or switch the tires
Trials tires are all about what you enjoy, there is no such thing as the perfect one. Everyone has their own preference. I personaly love the way the Luna acts under low pressure, but I hate how its not very grippy. I choose the luna over the CC though just because its what I have now and its what I'm used to.
I think my friend has a luna. If that's what comes on a summit. But I have the CC and I like better than his tire. But it may just be that I like my new kh instead of his summit.😕

Some people call me nuts for riding, other people call me no nuts.😕
I ride a CC, has great grip, people says it wears fast, I guess its true, but ive been running mine for about 10 months now. Still works as good as the day I bought it.
I think the Creepy Crawler is a good tire, I would like it more if I had a wider rim... but it's very hard to find a 48h rim that is wider than a DX32.
I WILL DO FOOLISH THINGS AND I WILL DO THEM WITH ENTHUSIASM, I WILL HURT MY SELF AND I WILL NOT CARE AND I WILL DO IT AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pkplonker's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/13484 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/56273
Having ridden both id say that my preference is for the Luna...Ive noticed that the Luna seems to have thicker sidewals and that it seems to wear alot slower than the Maxxis for urban riding. That being said, you cant beat the Maxxis when it comes to natural Trials in the woods, the tackier compound of the Maxxis gives it a bit of a better grip on things like logs and mossy rocks.
So i guess it really depends on where you ride and what style you ride...
I like my maxxis for trials and the luna for street. I like cody's tryall sticky the most though.

It's looking like the Luna isn't as grippy (really) and the CC wears down fast. I know from experience that the Luna is quite solid and hard whereas the CC is fairly soft.
From here it's down to what-you-use-it-for. I think from now you've got to just disregard what other people like and make up you own mind.
If you're going to do lots of natural trials riding that need very grippy tyres: *Go for the CC.* If you're going to do lots of urban street riding that just needs tough tyres that dont need to be grippy as much: *Go the the Luna.
*Someone please feel free to call BS on me though. Isn't there a HUGE thread "Maxis Vs. Luna" somewhere with Ryan Atkins' views? He knows Hugely more than me so find that!
