I just bought a Fisher 29er and on my first ride the Bontrager Jones XR tires annoyed me frequently because they lack sufficient knobs on the edge to hold in any kind of mud. I can't afford new tires until September, but I ride enough in borderline conditions that I need more aggressive tread. So...

I'm very interested in a pair of used 29er tires that still have at least a few months life in them. Anything with decent tread would be of interest to me.

I'm willing to pay a reasonable price, and I can offer my current tires, ridden only once, in trade or partial trade if anyone has any use for them. They're fast and sure on dirt, and did great in the non-muddy sections of Rosaryville, and they would be fine for a bike that doesn't get taken out in mud.

Let me know--feel free to send me an e-mail at dbfitzgerald@yahoo.com if you like.

Hey Dan.

I may have a Maxxis ignitor for you at the end of the week. I need a new one for the back, but the old one, though worn, has some life left in it.

That sounds good. How much would you want for it? Then I'd just need a second tire, though I might be able to swing buying one. If you had to put a used tire on just one wheel, which would it be?
