Hi,
Im still relatively new to cycling and I have one thing that bothers me. Whenever I cycle at pathway, then divert to the grass patch (this is just an example, it can happen also on any other trail when I change surface type) I sometimes experience tyre slipping even if the difference in surface height is only about 2 inches.
This normally happens on slow to medium speed but Im not sure if the case is the same on higher speeds (but of course pavement we drive slow anyway). What happens is the tyre goes up the other surface but slips back to the higher pavement making me momentarily struggle for control.
Is there something Im doing wrong here? angle of approach? My concern is when this happens on trail when the the trail is narrow and the sides are higher or rocky sections when its unavoidable to have sudden different pavement heights.
Here is a sketch of what Im doing,
If it helps, Im riding a hardtail 26er. Non tubeless and I set my tyre ressue to 35psi
