Ok,good! Then 1.95” might be good. Do you do any spinning tricks with it? 1.95 might be good solution then or else the heresy tire looks good!
I rode maxxis for a while also but they are super slow. You cant spin with those!

Good to know about the S&M’s. The heresy looks to be money. I’m still in love with Ares 1.9 however

I just got back into flatland so no crazy spinning tricks yet.. I ended up going back to my Ares 1.9 because I couldn't seat the Trackmark well enough for it not to wobble a bunch.

I have been running Primo E-Comets with kevlar beads on the front and rear for a couple months now. I really like them. They are grippy and roll smoothly. The tread depth is fairly low when new and they are pretty soft, so longevity probably won't be great. But for what they cost, I don't mind them not lasting as long. I have 1.95s and they measure narrower than the Ares 1.90s that I was using before. Overall, I am real pleased with them.

I use 1.95 ecomets on my street bike and they roll well. Not sticky at all but slick for rolling.

I have them also! They are slippery! They are good for grippy areas though!

The road in front of my house is pretty coarse as are the couple other places where I am able to ride. I don't have high quality spots, unfortunately. I forgot to add that detail to my post. Never really thought about that aspect! I hope to eventually have the problem where the E-Comets aren't grippy enough!

Yo trev!
I had this tire for a couple of monts!
It was great! Roll,spin and scuff perfectly!
One day it exploded after 110-120 psi i think.
Exactly like the ares tires.
I never bought it again.
If it wasnt in kevlar beading i would have bought it again.
