A lot of people with soft enduro tires, the trails being 20km out of Chiang Mai, many truck there bikes there to save the tires being quickly eaten by the tarmac

North east of Mae Jo University, the stone base makes these single tracks really fun to ride, they say can be ridden all year round

11 year old Zeb, on his KLX 110 with 14" inch wheels did a great job, the big boulders gave the small wheels some problems but he got through

This gives an idea of the difference in wheel size. The small wheels are a huge hinderance with big rocks, the back wheel ends up losing traction much earlier as the front wheel cant get over the rocks
