Strengths: Cornering, grip well on road. generally awesome on frontWeaknesses: Lock up and you continue at the same speed, on the rear these are terrible for grip, wear down quite fast. terrible on rearBottom Line: these tires came with my bike and well i've done about 400ks and the rear started showing the kevlar on some of the nobs so i rotated the tires and well alot better now, grip like crap on wet clay and any mud. the rear when braking just locks up and you continue at the same speed. on the rear these tires are terrible, on the front well i think im gonna keep them on the front and put a maxxis crossmark on the rear. cheap enough to rip up but i need something a bit more durable.

Strengths: For the price, these tires are an incredible performer. They roll great and I have very little issues with loosing traction up hill. As far as cornering grip goes, I don't corner super fast so I can't vouche for that. They are a higher volume tire and I run about 30psi and have yet to fell the rim.
Side walls also seem pretty tough. I have about 200km on them and mostly pavement as I ride to work and back and they are not showing a lot of wear. And for the price of these I don't mind ($30 ea)Weaknesses: They are heavy. Just shy of 800g
Steel bead and low TPI may not work well for tubeless
That's all I can think ofBottom Line: Basicly I think it's the best tire going for the price. And when they are worn off I will probably buy another set.
You get the old racing Ralph tread pattern in a ceased case.
Price Paid:
$30.00
Bike Setup: Cannondale flash 29 alloy 2 (2012)
