The tire you posted is the type I have been lookin at ! I found a pair of Contentinals on eBay for $30.00 total come with eBay return Gaurantee and state they are like new installed on a bike and were wrong size ; So what size tire like that will replace a mudder like I have that is a 26 x 1.5 - 195 with a tread pattern like you display except all black and just for looks I like big fat tires ? Please and thank you !
lol with my health issues blood clots and hip implant and the weather in good ole Georgia only snows possibly 4 x's a year but it does get IMO to cold to ride early am from Dec to March and never clod straight through for 4 mths it will be like in the teens F* for possibly 3 days straight and not get above 40* even in daylight for 30 out of 120 day of the 4 mths of our winter . Like today it will be 80* F* but last night it was near 50* not cold but requirs a bit a Linen when sleeping at night usuall early am right before sun up which was about 5;30 to 7:30 am EST Wed.
I guess the pads are good , I can do front wheel stands and lock the back tire up on dirt or aspault ? Those tires are not dry rotted and must be tough they were added when I bought the bike over 20 years ago and never had a tire issue or slice and 80% of it's past life the bike was in the Blue Ridge Mountains & hills and Trails along the Chatoochee River Around North Atlanta Georgia USA , mud , hills , rocks, roots ,gravle , and trails even pile ups on dirt tracks this bike is heavy and heavy duty in 92 I paid $1400.00 and added tires , Rock Shocks , went back 2 mths later and dropped 1 tooth on the smallest front sprocket , had Rooster Bars on the end of the handle bars for tough hills and Georgia red mud and slick clays took them off when all the kids came along and we rode to neighborhood pool and rides in the park !
No squeeks and always been kept dry and clean ! In low gear the bike will go up any hill as long as I can pedal . Yesterday , I rode about 3 hours up and down the same road and still don't have the front derailer tuned perfect ! It clanks and will jump a few teeth on the front sprockets from gear to gear not smooth ? Does the rear tensioner loose strength after 20 year ? Still rideable just not smooth gear changing ? lol , I guess I answered my own question . Still I welcome any advise I have 3 or 4 donor bikes and some are newer than this one but just don't feel as good as this one ; Altus shifters are Thumb Index fingers and they click shift not pressure shift . . . .click it and it shifts that is what I am learning along with staminia count the clicks and this comes from riding and shifting ? I have a newer style Rock Shock and newer shifters and a whole new rear ? ? ? ? ? ? Sprockets attached to other wheels ? Can I chage just the tension part of the gear system ?
