NIce Bike, BTW do you find any handling advantage having the rear tire much wider than the front tire. Understand the Recon is much faster and has a lower grip than the DHRII.

Thanks! The only handling advantage is that I can run pretty low pressures and with a Rimpact it feels quite controlled, damped. It’s not suspension but it helps. And I find it less bouncy/ pingy than running a full 29er setup.
My favourite rear tyre is the Aggressor but they don’t make a 2.8, hence the Rekon. But I actually really like it too. It’s seen as a light weight, which it is but it has a great balance of grip/ pedal ability just like the Aggressor. Imo.

Thx Thom, I also ride an HT and currently use a Maxxis Aspen 2.4. It's pretty harsh and the grip is marginal if best. I have a 2.6 DHF/DHR tires on my FS bike, will try your setup. Thx again
