if you want some incredibly fast but still grippy tires, check out the maxxis DTH. i just got a pair on my 26" rigid and they ride like a dream.

Cheers mate! Was gonna buy those, but:
1: they aren't avaliable in Hungary
2: 2.30's don't seem to clear :\

I'm going with 26x2.0 Schwalbe Big Apples first, and we'll see.

I went with some cheap Kenda in the end, because money. :P But still thanks again for the advice, if I ever upgrade, it will be the DTH's I'll check first.
