Hey everyone... I'm just wondering what tires people have found to work the best when doing Abermination and other local xc races. I did Palos over the summer and had plenty of traction, but both front and rear were pretty hefty tires. I'm looking at Maxxis Ardent Race, Maxxis Aspen, Racing Ralph, and maybe something from the new Michelin line up like the Force XC.

I'm on a 29er with around 23mm internal width, if I remember correctly.

Any thoughts are welcome.
