Big Sugar Classic 2025

Race King 2.2s, no inserts, Silca Ultimate sealant.

Just debating on the wheels. Last year ran the ENVE 4.5s and may stick with them, but 3.4s also an option.

I run this combo on my Revolt. They are great tires, fast, and grip well. Have put them through the ringer from smooth dirt/gravel, to singletrack with a lot of rocks/baby heads. Handle well.

Good to hear! Do you run them with or without inserts?

I don’t have any experience with those tires, but Big Sugar can be a bit of a flat fest. Just make sure whatever you run is fairly durable (hopefully those Schwalbe’s are). I’ve raced those roads a few times (Big Sugar x1 and Rule of 3 twice) and I’ve been lucky, but there are always a lot of flats on the course. Particularly early in the day when the packs are bigger/dustier and line choice can be a challenge. If you aren’t trying to stay with packs bombing the descents, probably much less flat risk.
