MTB tyre advice
Ja1983:
Tioga Psychos (or for a bit more agression, the "edge" and "TT" as front/rear combo) served me well, pressure made a huge differance it the way they respond and preference would be a wide rim, as the big chunky side knobs tend to be a tad unstable on a thin rim.
....they were around £8/tyre too, which was nice!
michelin wildgripper! the green ones! - sweeet
my specialized is rolling on the standard tyres at the mo, but i have some chunky munkies, some slicks, some semi-slicks and some soft compound blue ones... depending on my routeplan......
The blue ones are i think kenda dart, and bear claw.... but didnt weather well, i seem to remeber that hard braking stability was an issue!
but i`d recommend something like a tioga psycho (if they still sell them) for a good allround cheap tyre.

I've got some old copies of Mountain Bike Action that have all the adverts in. They still make interesting reading (as do old 'Velo News')

The 700C Cyclo-Cross derivatives are well used, or so it seems
