I use Intense micro knobbies on 20 and cruiser,

fat front, skinny rear and have noticed they roll faster and stick better than any tire I have used before  :daumenhoch:

 :) DINGO :)

The fat/thin discussion could go on forever.

Ride with what you feel most comfortable with. I go for 1.75 front and rear.

I've got Schwalbe Mow Joe 1.85 front and rear.  However, they seem to come up a bit wider than 1.85 (more like 1.95), so I might stick a 1.75 Comp 3 or one of those Intense Micro jobbies on the back next season.

 I run 1.75 front and rear,just personal preference and doesn`t make my bike look like a reverse tractor!

Regarding the fat/thin thing. I've got some skinwall comp 3's and some blackwall. The skinwall 2.125 is huge compared to the 2.125 blackwall one. :laugh:
