  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

i'm about to replace my Motoz Tractionator Enduro S/Ts with another set, love 'em. what do others running these tires on the 125-based bikes run for tubes? standard or heavy duty?

not sure what's on there right now but they didn't feel that thick when i repaired a flat on Sunday (3" roofing nail on the trail, weird) and i've never pinched a tube with the Motoz on... even at 8psi in the rocks. super sidewalls.

are HD tubes just overkill with the Tractionator Enduros? trying to avoid any additional weight if i can.
 
I like to run the 3mm Motoz tubes. The 4mm motoz tubes are crazy thick and IMHO a bit to much. I ride a lot of roots and rocks and long 50-70 mile days so I want flat protection.
 
thanks. so i guess you didnt notice any weight or handling changes with the 3mm tubes on the little bike?

i ride roots and rocks too but more in the ~30mi range and never really that far from the truck. think i'm going to give the MSR HD tubes a try. ran some Moose HDs on my TC but still pinched one. (19" rear w/MXMS tires)
