Strengths: Tough solid tread, predicable, GripWeaknesses: Weight but cant have everything!Bottom Line: I have the new 2-Bliss version (researched and said was way better)where the other reviewer above mite have not but i have had new problems at all and have ridden the Heaphy Track with has some nasty sharp rocks, didnt have a problem. Side walls seem fine and alot stronger/thicker than the Mountain Kings. Tread works on all surfaces but is slower on hard pack. Works better if you ride it bit more aggressively and get on those big side knobs. If they do slide its easy to pull back and always in control.
If you want a back country, all mountain go anywhere tough tyre this would be my first pick.

Strengths: Tire grips well on climbs and corners great.Weaknesses: I've had to get a replacement one already because the sidewall failed and created a large wobble that greatly affected riding. Just got another one today and the tires have less than 200 miles on them.Bottom Line: Overall the tire performs well but running tubeless didn't last. They say 2bliss ready but the tires lasted lass than 2 months which makes me very disappointed and WILL NOT be buying them again..
Only reason I rated them as high as I did is because they work great, until they fail.
