Strengths:
High volume, grips great when ascending steep tracks. Dosen't wear fast. Considerably durable for a folding tire. I already blown 3 tubes and I'm still using the same tire. Thread patterns does work on keeping the mud out of the tire's gripping area.
Weaknesses:
Slips easily on wet paved roads when cornering.
