Has anyone tried these? I read the write up on NSMB and that guy seemed to like 'em. If you are using them, which casing did you get (factory or race) and how's it working out? Flats? Tubeless? I'm looking to lighten up the ride a little and that Mich 2.8 up front looks like an easy place to save a little weight.

no idea but it would have to be one Fn good tire to replace a Nevegal....

Kenda has a REAL winner on thier hands with that tire.

I use these tires and love them. Front and back 2.7. These are a BIG 2.7 I also have a set of Nevegals at home just waiting to be tried.

The Syncros product line has been nothing but great to me.

Have you been using a Nevegal on the front? I've got a 2.7 Blue Groove on the front that I plan to downsize to a 2.5 when it's done. I wonder how the two compare?

I saw the Synchros BHT at my LBS, it felt heavy, but that was just the "hang it from the pinky" test.

yes, i ran a dual nevegal setup almost all last season..

i REALLY disliked the Bluegroove.. so in my search for a replcament tire i deced to try a nevegal up front, even thou i know its a rear specific tire...

i was very happy with its performance on the back of my bike, so i risked buying another to put on the frt.

been supa-happy with it..while it stil isnt as good of a tire in teh driest part of summer then my FAV Intense DH tires, the nevegal is fantastic for every other part of the season....

was kind of funny actually shortly after i switched to the dual nevegal setup i notice a few of the Norco team riders running the same setup, so i asked em " hey u liking the dual nevegals?" their response " oh hell yeah much bettter then the Blue groove"...

so there u go....

i suggest u try it...i know you'll be happy.

I'm running the Nevegal on the front too.....works good. In the rear a Tioga White Tiger and it has worked well also....wet and dry.
