Normally running Ardents on the rear all year round but the current slop around the South East is overwhelming them. Though it's fun sliding about, there's little grip at times.
Been looking at the Aggressor which seems a bit more knobbly than the Ardent but not as much as DHF/DHR/HR2. I run DHF on the front which is fine all year but I'm not so keen on a draggy rear especially when doing more XC-ish/trail rides and trying to keep up with faster groups. HR2 I run on the rear of my old Nomad, which is fine when it's pointing mostly down hill but really no good picking up speed on the flat though. Too draggy.
Any opinions on Aggressor for mud conditions while keeping fast rolling, or as much as possible?
Not talking swamp mud, but more the sticky trail type mud generally mixed with dryer trails, as is my current typical kind of riding. If I hit boggy areas, then I just deal with it. I'm not breaking out full on mud tyres for that.
