artrax ride report

[myusername]

some of you may know i just recently bought a set of artrax mxt-r(?) tires and there was a few requests for a ride report. keep in mind, i've never ridden on anything else except baloons, and bald mx tires. anyways. they are a good tire, and where i was riding yesterday, there was a lot of hard pack dirt, sand, mud, loose dirt, ruts from bikes and all that. these tires didnt even struggle to get me through any of it. they are so predictable around turns. my conclusion, if anyone is looking for a cheap tire, these are the ones to get. they are very nice for the money

lol where are the pics yo? are they like a holeshot look alike? i am going to be sad when my fast trekkers wear out lmao.

 

[brandoz28]

they're kinda holeshotish lol

so a holeshot look. also 18s suck for woods imo. they lack ground clearance.

it doesnt bother me that they are only 18's, because alot of people say they lack ground clearance, but you may loose like an inch and a half. also, i have an extended swingarm so that helps bring it right back up

umm no it wont. you lose around a inch of ground clearance. you can have a ten foot long swingarm but your carrier will still be at the same location off the ground.

yeah your right there. i was thinking the frame not the carrier. sorry
