2.3ish on a 30mm rim. They were undersized out of the box, stretched a bit, I can give them a measure tonight after having ridden them a couple hundred miles.
Agreed on the Rick. Once you find the lean, it is pretty amazing at cornering. Took me a week or two to get used to it switching from the Rekon Races. It takes about 3 weeks for the tires to get to 2.4, by then they are worn out 
I don’t agree considering I raced most of last season with RICKS and never had a tire related issue although I did one race with a DUB and suffered a flat. They are both very comparable in grip from my experience but the Dub is considerably lighter.
My first race of the new season starts next weekend and I will give the DUBs one more chance but I will also have a spare set of wheels with RICKS ready to go.
I’ve beat the hell out of the Dub’s on some very rough and rocky stuff here in the Northeast, 2 weeks of hammering on them in Leadville, and not even a scratch as far as I can tell.
I’m also more of a fan of them than the Ray/Ralph and those have more traction than the Rick.
(Edit to an older post - I posted this below, but after posting this I did end up losing one lug on my rear Dub, or at least noticing that it was gone. Didn’t flat, but now feel like I’m asking for it on that tire so probably need to retire it)
When you guys post about what tires you run, can you add a qualifier of where??
Just want to get a perspective of which tires are working in which areas of the country and what trails.
Really impressive results. This really challenges people’s intuitions that aggressive tires are implicitly slower. With winter quickly approaching, I’m extremely tempted to get a pair of Barzos 2.4
How wide are the Barzos - either mounted, or bead-to-bead? Close to a true 2.4”?
This, and I’m also curious how much cornering traction the latest Barzo offer.
Is it comparable to the Schwalbe Nobby Nic, for example?
What’s your weight and tire pressures on the dubs?
Definitely. 62.5 mm on Kovee RSL. 60 mm tall. Big tire.
Wow. That’s big. Interestingly - that’s the same size as the Vittoria 2.6” Agarros that I recently purchased (mounted on a 30mm width rim). They measure 165mm bead to bead, and 2.45” mounted. They look huge compared to previous undersized Schwalbe 2.4s I had been running
I wonder if tire companies use the same structural tooling / dies for tires, and just change the inner stamping to say 2.4 or 2.6. For Schwalbe, their 2.4 and 2.6 Wicked Wills were identical also - but on the smaller size.
Looks are deceiving, apparently. Anyone running Barzo Front/Rear?
I just picked up 2 of them and am going to either setup Barzo/Mezcal or Barzo/Barzo as that seems like it could be a great setup.
I’m thinking of a Barzo front and Peyote rear.
I assume the Barzo offers very reliable grip as a front tyre and might even be one of the ‘safest’ XC front tyre options. Or am I expecting too much?
Trinotal rapid test results just published by BRR
I’ve been running the Trinotal in Trail casing front for a few rides. It’s fast, but certainly not confidence inspiring. Also, narrow as the test showed (57 mm).
BRR uses 19mm rim which is way out of the manufacture recommendations, agree it looks narrow but on a 29mm Roval rim, it sits just 60mm @1.1 bar
oh and BRR started using lower, more real life mtb pressures! 
I like the Barzo front. It has very good grip and brakes loose about where I expect it to. The Mez outback is just meh for me. I feel like it brakes loose kind of abruptly compared to the Ralph which brakes traction pretty predictably.
Both Barzo/Mez 2.35 (previous gen)
