I thought I would pass along some information I noticed. I'm at this
point just learning basic uni stuff, and come from a mountain bike
background. In my forum watching I noticed some talk about prototype
WTB Kodiak 2.6 29er tires. Mike Curiak who sells wheels and does
endurance racing has some prototypes. He previously mentioned he
expected a bigger 29er tire to be out for the spring, but it sounds like
the design he was testing is going to get scrapped.

'Thread with discussion on the tire' (http://tinyurl.com/6ag2ah)
'Mike Curiak's site' (http://lacemine29.com/index-ny.html) where you
might be able to get your hands on these if you are crazy enough to try
prototype tires. Judging by the description they sound like DH weight
heavy solid tires which would fit the muni tire requirements.

You have lots of time to read forums while recovering from a sprained
ankle. Hopefully this will be of use to someone.

In another thread Kris confirmed that the Kodiak tire is dead. If I had
a 29er I probably would try to get my hands on one of those prototypes
though. Thanks for the links.
