Strengths:    Extremely fast, Climbing, Corning, Responsive

Weaknesses:    Haven't found any yet.

Bottom Line:   
I've been running this tire for the rear for approx. 5 months. As an avid rider/racer, I just recently replaced it with both front and rear renegades. Set it up with stans rims and ride your bike. It sealed up no problem with stans no tubes and I lose less than a psi per ride (3+ hours). I can't say enough about this tire. It is instant performance.

Strengths:    lightweight, pretty gripy for weight, not the thinest sidewalls out there, super easy to setup tubeless just a little sealant and a floor pump on stans rims.

Weaknesses:    price, availability,

Bottom Line:   
If I could have baby's with a tyre this would be it.
Not cheap but i would pay more if I had too for this kind of performance.
I'm about 90kg and the tyre seams to be holding up fine, never used specialised tyres before but now I'm gonna try some of there other 29 inch models

Strengths:    Very fast, better traction than you think, light.

Weaknesses:    Climbing & braking traction, will not hold air when set up tubeless

Bottom Line:   
Great speed, decent traction. Another product that promises something and doesn't deliver. Specialized claims this tire and many others can be set up tubeless but this one and many others don't seem to hold air. I've talked to many people including bike mechanics that warned me to stay away from specialized tires. Their downhill tires rock though.
