Tailwheel

[Deejayel 1]

I just purchased a set of nanco tires to replace the very small very hard shoes I currently have.

I'm not looking to go crazy off-roading, just hit every local grass strip I can find. Which includes the sandbars on the river and such.

Anyway, the mains are a start. I have the maule 6" solid on the rear. Again, without going crazy Alaska, what are your recommendations?

Thanks

Matco 8" pneumatic.  Either the wide one or the narrow one is far superior to the Maul.

Whlt-8L whlt-8 or whlt-8w?

Ok. I like the looks of the 8L.

I started with the 6" hard rubber Maul on my Avid MKIV, then went to an 8" pnumatic Maul which was a great improvement but still cut a trench in the soft gravel and sand.  I went to an 8" x 3.5" Matco twin fork TW last year on my Avid+ and really like it.  Also have been flying Jeff's Avid with the single fork Matco with the same tire and it works great too.  I like the balanced load of the twin fork on the tail spring but the massive casting on the single fork is probably as tough or tougher.  Both handle great so I would recommend either one.

My Nancos and dual fork 8" wide TW take Me everywhere I need to go and then some. It's kind of a pain on pavement but works awesome on grass and gravel bars.
