Then really what's the point? LOL.Originally Posted by JohnR.
Unless Maxxis is completely stupid I'd say they would start pumping out the 826 again before next fall. It is the only tire for ice racing and they must sell a ton of them so I can't see why they would stop making them. Oh, and there are some other new 826's floating around riverrat, they just aren't for sale.

It's just to get people jealous, I know.
I could use one more for the orphan I got. And a back up set.
I ain't to worried anyway, it's not like I am racing for competition, or money, just bragging rights I guess, and my machine, or my skill is a long way from being up to par I am sure. One of those other tires you mention would do me just fine, and I can have my drug
(ice racing).

RUMOR TO REST...
Spoke with Scott Perkins of MAXXIS International specialty sales division via telephone this morning. CHENG SHEN is MAXXIS parent company. Thats right they own MAXXIS. The C826 is not a tire that everyone stocks. Its not even on there radar as being a POPULAR tire. Therefore not many are imported into the USA. I inquired about it being a discontinued item. He stomped that and said the only recent tires to be discontinued were the CHENG SHEN D.O.T. tires for motorcycles.
The C826 IS NOT DISCONTINUED, Merely out of stock. He did state it could take up to 2 months to restock this into the USA.

Arm chair racerJust too addicted
when i bought my new razor 2's they had a little sticker on them that said cheng shen made in china. i couldn't believe i spent $110 for a tire from chen shing. they have the cheapest tires! lol i always thought maxxis was an american company.

This makes perfect sense to me. What's so funny is all the different responses I got from calling the 40+ stores that say they have them across the U.S. They told me everything from there out of stock, to Cheng Shin has been shut down by the Chinese EPA.
Cheng Shin probably only makes one run of these tires per year, in the Summer, and everyone stocks them then. Places like Parts Unlimited supply half the stores selling them, and when they run out, they all are out. They won't stock too many because if the ice season is crappy (thanks global warming) then they have to hold them for 2 years, and they lose money.
Lesson here, get your ice stuff in the summer. I can't even find kold cutter screws right now, so I had to settle for gold screws. I only searched a few places, but I am sure they will be hard to get.
