Qu-Ax tire

Hi Robbo! As far as I know you can't really go wrong with tyres -they'll
all pretty much cope with a lot of abuse.

If you really want to spend some money on improving your uni you might
want to consider buying a new tyre but it will only make your ride
slightly lighter.

Hope this helps

ive got the same problem and the quax tire is too soft so it will be
worn down quite quick.

somewhere I read "loose the maxis, get a luna!" and I think its true...

The maxxis is much worse with folding on sidehops, Luna hardly folds at
all. I don't notice much differance with the grip either. I think the
only advantage of the maxxis is that it's lighter.

I just got a Qu-Ax and I was wondering should I keep the big fat tire or
get another trials tire? This one is pretty heavy and I DOnt know if it
will the affect the big hops i will eventualy be doing.

Well, as far as the hopping goes, any tire will pretty much do. If you
think of yourself as a 75kg person, 200 grams more or less on your tire
won't make a difference. Also, I have the 'standard' (Qu-ax supplies
20" trial uni's with both Lunas and Maxxis CCs) Maxxis tire, and can
jump 29" pretty good. Thanks for the extra 4 odd inches in stable jump
height go to Ryan Atkins for a few pointers on my technique 😉
