what's wrong with them, why would you sell them after riding them for 5 minutes?

damn...I'll find out later..lost a washer for my hub and I can't ride this one for 2 weeks. 24lbs ans 8 oz though! I can actually go lighter. I only changed the front tire to a 2.2 xr1 Team Issue. I'm gonna do 2.0 xr1 Team issues and lighter tubes.

Oh, and SB8 were at MEC last time i was there..um 3 weeks ago? I'm sure they have started stocking them, since when i was there, it wasn't just one or two..it was a whole stack. Call em up and make sure the person actually WALKS to the aisle to look and not just check the computer, because its still not on their website yet for some reason.

they have noticeably more grip and just feel better in general. The 1.95 sb8s felt especially bad on concrete

I like the race kings way better. I'm running a 2.2 front/2.0 rear combo and it's great. If you have the clearance in the rear, then I would recommend getting two 2.2's because they are 479g and the 2.0's are 423g. For such a small weight difference, I think its totally worth it to get two 2.2's because the 2.0 is tiny. Way narrower than a 1.95 small block

Compared to 5.1D's- not as soft, but laterally not as strong. Much lighter though, I would say 719's are better.
521's- Much lighter, similar strength and stiffness. 521's suck.
721's- Not nearly as strong, but considerably lighter. I spin hard on 719s and they hold up OK, I just have to true them more often. As a keeper wheelset, I'd go 721's (strength over weight) but if you like light shit, or you never pivot/under-rotate 3's, 719's will do you fine. Keep your tension up!)

Small bump is spring pressure, Bottom out is reservoir pressure/volume relationship. Totally different. It can be done. It might not feel like a 6 inch trail bike but it can happen.

The commencal meta 4x would be another to look at

Gonna kill someone in there.

Double is a great option, it can be setup for trail no problem
