Our Thoughts
The Mountain King is a useful choice if your 26-inch bike is still getting out on the trails. Its more pronounced tread provides a good option for riders who value grip over the smooth rolling of a commuter tyre.
Check your rim compatibility and make sure your frame or fork has enough clearance for a 2.30-inch tyre. Follow the pressure marked on the tyre and do not exceed the rim manufacturer’s limit.
