And rolling on, if you've been on Fire XCs for that long, its probably time to move onto something designed within the last 20 years. I used to use them for everything (except racing) until about 5 years ago.
Have moved onto Racing Ralph/Nobby Nic combos, they seem to be the modern equivalent. Comparing back to back, they do everything better.

And if you are running that sort of pressure, i'm not surprised you still think Fires cut it!
Sticking to what I know could be worse, could still be running Farmer Johns Nephews or 1.5" Conti XC's, Onza HO pedals and Amp research F3 forks have to try the Scwalbe's next time !

Cheers, Adam
