What about the GBC Grim Reapers? They seem like they would have a lot to offer, 8 ply, good looking tread, and should have a good contact area for smooth ride.
Thanks

I like mine real well. They have impressed me. I only have a couple of hundred miles on them but I am satisfied thus far.

WVTECHNICIAN, what size Reapers are you running and how much air pressure? I've got 2 Grim Reapers 27x9x14 mounted on Raceline A8 wheels and got 2 more Reapers the same size on back order. Sorry for posting my question here but I can't send PM's yet.

Thanks!
Scott

I don't see a problem posting the question here..... I am running the same size as you but on itp wheels on the front and 11 on the back. I am still playing around with air pressure but so far I am running 10 psi in the front and 12 psi in the back.

Most everything i have seen from gbc seem like a decent tire...i have a lot of miles on my dirt commander's and still holding up good. I run about 6-8 pounds around here but when i get down hatfields in the rocks i bump them up to around 11

hey 09rzr are there any trails near avella? Are you anywhere around the village?

We roadabout 65 miles yesterday around avella down into brooke county....i am assuming by "village" you are talking about meadowcroft....if so i am about 10 minutes from there...

yes, meadowcroft.. i grew up in weirton. I still ride back roads out at devils den in paris on occassion....I worked on a few gas well sites around avella. There looked like there should be trails around there but I never seen any real indications.

09rzr, where was you at in brooke county, i was out yesterday as well riding behind follansbee middle school then rode out to weirton.

We started out going to follansbee but got side tracked ended up riding from west middletown where i live down into cross creek park to avella and down to jacks stateline inn up to brooke hills park and down thru bethany to the old german beer garden and down 49 hill to beech bottem

... i do contract instrumentation for natural gas.. if memory serves right they were range sites .. no idea the names any more.

It is mostly range around the house here so you were prolly close...

I remember one that I went to I kind of went thru avella and towards washington but it was on swihart road. I thought surely that has to be spelled wrong but nope that is how it was on the road sign. "swihart"

We ride up around shades of death road down towards white sands too
