• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Working great holding up great. Tried them on most everything now (Tractionator X-circuit). At 300 plus miles in the deep mud I would not say these are the ultimate mud tire (this is the intermediate terrain tire so not the mud one) but very good. Did everything my trials tire friends do. Still very happy with the traction and durability. Lots of miles left. I would have to say one of the best if not the best wearing tire I have used to date.

BTW, yesterday i was noticing a little pushing in the front end while really trying to make time on the trail. I ended up raising my fork tubes in the clamp for quicker turning. WOW, what a difference. My point is if you are not 100% satisfied with how your front end is sticking it might not be the tire, it might just be your setup.

- I am going to write up a setup post when i get time.

there was a section of this trail my buddy with the trails tire in the deep mud was struggling with, i had no issue. Then again there was a few slick rocky / rooty areas his trials tire worked a little better.

These tires seem to handle it all very well. Still extremely happy. :thumbsup:
 
Looks good Kelly. Nice report and pics. I am actually getting excited to try these tires once my current ones wear out.
 
I'll take close up pix of the tires tonight after i was the bike for reference. Rounded edges but little actual wear. I have been VERY hard on these tires on purpose. I keep the hammer down on gravel roads and everything as I want real results.

cool, I was gonna ask for a close up so all could see how much wear they had.
 
Using a tread depth guage would provide an accurate assessment of the wear without going by a visual estimation.

yeah, should have done that from the get go. See in this pic where there are little indentations in every center knob, those are shallow, like A 16th inch or so. Still very much there today surprisingly.

That's just nuts.....you gotta be putting new tires on every ride. Can't fool me!

And it's entirely too wet out there where you ride, not near enough dust and pointy rocks. And just what the heck are those long stringy things going accross the trails?

You guys up there are weird.
 
Let's not forget that we have leaves up here that fall off trees and add to the slippery when wet factor
