Submitted by muddy guy a Cross Country Rider from Winnipeg, MB, Canada

Date Reviewed: July 5, 2011

Strengths:    Light, seals well with Stan's, Great grip climbing, fast on hard pack, cross country favorite

Weaknesses:    Light equates to thin walls,

Bottom Line:   
Run them tubeless with Stan's for cross country speed. They dig in on climbs and bite well on descends at 30 psi. Very happy with performance and value. Good in sand or dirt.

Submitted by beckejac a Cross Country Rider from Eau Claire, Wi, USA

Date Reviewed: January 26, 2011

Strengths:    Low rolling resistance, good cornering, traction

Weaknesses:    cost

Bottom Line:   
During the summer when I was working at the shop I was scrolling through the new tires and saw the XR0 and thought it would be a good tire so I ordered some and used them at the Subaru Cup Pro XTC. They performed amazing. In the tight rocky single track they were very responsive inbetween big rocks with a little mud. Climbed better then my fuious fred and XR1 with no tires spinning out on me when I got tired and had to stand to get up the last of the climbs. Decents they worked flawlessly, I could really push myself to the point where I would get scared on the downhill switchback. The best part about it was the decreased rolling resistance. Super fast!!!!! Cannot wait to open them up when the snow melts!!!

4 chilis for price
5 for overall, this is the tire you need for XC racing.(no wonder Subaru-Trek uses them!)
