Can't be. That's wider then a 2.5" tire. It must be a prototype.

Tryall tire looks like this on that unicycle:http://tinyurl.com/azswj.


The tread is different, and it looks like a wider tire.

I may well be wrong, but I don't think I am. :)

Definitely the normal try-all mod tire.

You're right.

It's the normal Try-All 2.5 tyre, on a Try-All rim. The Try-All rims
are a bit wider than most others and so it looks wider.

From UDC:

DX32 is 40mm wide
KH 19" Freeride is 42.2mm wide
Try-All is *47*mm wide


Plus Yogi always runs his tyres at super low pressures.

Since getting my Large Marge rim, my muni is extremely stable and can
be ran at very low psi. So I reckon his wider rims must give a fair
degree of extra stability too, especially as Yogi always seems really
stable on all sorts of tiny wee platforms/ledges.

for some reason, when I read the title of this thread, I thought it
said, what child is this, like the song. that was kinda weird.
anyway, I think its the regular Try-All tire.

My bad. :( :)

Yup, it's the try-all.

What threw me off was that the tread looked like the endomorph tire. I
thought it might be a 19" proto of along the same lines as the 26".

I think that it is the fact that the photographer is using a wide angle
lens close up to the unicycle, it is merely the lens distortion which
makes it seem larger.
