Check out Soma Cazaderos. I run them on my Clem from the path to the trail.

You didn’t mention what bike/wheel size you’re using, and more than likely 
you’re looking for something wider, but I second the Soma Cazaderos (650b x 
42mmm) on my Atlantis as well. For a mixed terrain tire, it has a surprising 
amount of bite off-road and on singletrack, and rolls really smooth and 
relatively quiet on the road. I’ve only had them for a few months, but they’ll 
definitely be my year-round tires on the Atlantis.

I don’t know if they are available since he recently passed, but what about
Bruce Gordon Rock ‘n Roads?

I absolutely love Schwalbe Thunderburts if your bike will fit them.   Soma's 
cazaderos also give nice traction with minimal drag.  I leave the caz on my 
Atlantis year round.

[RBW] Does anyone have any knobby tire suggestions for a 52 Clem H?

2019-07-04 Thread 'Deacon Patrick' via RBW Owners Bunch
Your Kendas will be find for most easy trails, but as soon as you get into much 
up/down rock/root and wet, they slip rather than grip well. Knobbies matter, 
but moreso a grippy rubber matters, and Schwalbe or Rene Herse have that nailed 
over others (including Maxxis). 

With abandon,
Patrick

[RBW] Does anyone have any knobby tire suggestions for a 52 Clem H?

2019-07-04 Thread 'Deacon Patrick' via RBW Owners Bunch
Matthew, it all depends on what you're riding here. I'd recommend learning on 
"easy" singletrack if you're hitting trails. There is a big difference between 
singletrack on the front range and foothills vs into the mountains. Where are 
you going and what type of riding will you be doing? I live on Pike Peak, so am 
familiar with stuff around here.

Schwalbe Racing Ralph and Nobby Nic (I ride both year round here and love them, 
mine are with tubes, as light as I can get) are great all-round tires for 
whatever CO tosses your way. Rocks, roots, wet, loose, steep up, steep down, 
with obstacles and turns, without, you'll have a blast learning! 

With abandon,
Patrick

[RBW] Does anyone have any knobby tire suggestions for a 52 Clem H?

2019-07-04 Thread Matthew Naftis
I'm travelling to Colorado in a couple of weeks, and think I may need 
something more than the stock Kendas that have, so far, been perfectly 
suitable for paved and gravel bike paths of Dallas.

But maybe I'm wrong?  Although I've ridden bikes my whole life, putting 
much thought into what and how I'm riding is a fairly new thing for me.
  
Thank you.
