I see my supplier offers two; downhill, def not me, and Mountain, I assume you recommend the Mountain??? What about the IKON? Any experience? about 40% lighter, but ulimately, 8 to 9 ounces lighter. Thanks.
Getting great feedback from Ardent AND Ikon. What's a boy to do lol. Thanks. Think I'll start a new post on ikon v ardent. I'll let you guys know pricing, and you'll let me know what ya think.
I hate to confuse things but the Crossmark and Ignitor are both great tires too. The crossmark is pretty much my go to tire. I ride in WNC/Pisgah. Actually running the Ignitor up front right now but that's only because I wasn't real happy with the Panaracer Rampage. I have an Ardent on the way for the front. Then the Ignitor will go to the rear for the leafy/sloppy season, crossmark back on the rear next spring.
I almost bought a Ikon but after looking at one in person I decided the tread just isn't aggressive enough for the conditions I ride in.
I'm running the exc/exo to me i think it rolls just as good as the icon exc exo 3c but has more grip.
