Front tire slip with Cube AMS 100 in fast corners

[kahwel]

Hey guys,

Sorry for the English, but I am not able to explain that details in German,
dafür ich schreibe das in English. Aber in generel ich kann deutsch verstehen,

I have now owned my new Cube AMS 100 Super HPC SL for ~1,5 month, CUBE AMS 100 Super HPC SL 29 (http://www.cube.eu/en/full/allmountain/ams-100-super-hpc-sl-29/)
but during the time I have not managed to manage the bike in fast corners and even in not that fast corners.

The problem for me is that the front tire starts to slip really badly, so now I have instinct to hold back. I have already manage to fell aswell couple of times, but nothing badly.

Cube had Rocket Rons mounted, which had initially the issue. I changed them for Maxxis Ardent (2,25), but still the same problem. I have played with different tire pressures, but seems not to be working for me. Today I had 2,6 psi in the back and front 2,4 psi.

I try to tilt the bike aswell during the corners, but that doesn't improve the situation.
In the ground I have mud, gravel, small rocks ... all sorts of stuff, but I have no confidence taking the corners, because I know and feel the tires not working for me and they start to slip very badly. Cornering speeds vary from 25 km/h up to 50 km/h

Any suggestions, ideas? Is it about my technique? I have aswell Nobby Nic tires to try out, but currently it is dry in the forest, so I am planning to put them on. But maybe for comparison would be good.

Thank you in advance,

Siim

Hey kahwel,

my english is not so good, but i try.
I don't think, it's a problem of your tires..
But what about your chassis settings? When i have to much pressure in my rear damper and less in my fork, i have the same effect with my bike. possibly you have to set up the low pressure stage.

greets,
