Hmm. Interesting. I had GA2 fats and GE1 and don’t love them. Although I had a set of the first gen GE1 with the cutout on the inner plastic tube and they were great.I've had them on my bike for a few months now.
For reference they replaced Ergon GA2 Fats.
In the carpark they felt massive, almost too thick. But once on the trail they were not noticeable. Very soft, and so do scuff/tear relatively easy, but nothing a bit of silicone won't fix.
Not sold on whether they are better than the ergon yet. I did like the tapered feel of the fats.

Just align the valve stem to the first 'X' in Maxxis...The brand stamping is not in the same position between left and right side. If you line up the brand name to the valve stem, make sure it's the right hand side as that's the side to photograph. If you line up the left side branding to valve stem the right side looks askew. Ask me how I know...
Well played...
You call that pedal parallel?Just align the valve stem to the first 'X' in Maxxis...

I never used to care or even give it consideration until it became a big thing on here. Suddenly I can't help it! Whenever I am fitting a tyre I automatically make the valve hole and logo my starting point.I’m taking a stand on lining up valves on my bikes from now on.
I’ll line up Felix’s for insta-cred, but as long as my tyres aren’t fitted backwards, that’ll do.*
*sometimes they are
That is piss poor wheel alignment for your photos though. Sure your logo and valve match, but your wheels aren't at the same "time".Just align the valve stem to the first 'X' in Maxxis...

What if one uses decent tyres though?Just align the valve stem to the first 'X' in Maxxis...

Fkn lol, I just saw the other pedal in that pic. Maybe I'm not as OCD as I thought I was.
You know how they say don't use weed spray within 6 hours of rain? Good luck with that this time of year in Melbourne!And spray your weeds.
FFS, fix your goddamn bar plugs. My eyes are bleeding, and guts are churning.But you missed the finger-in-frame corner on the first picture! Tsk tsk...
