a Weekend Warrior Date Reviewed: February 17, 2013 Strengths: These tires shed mud and grip in loose terrain very well. I went from GEAX AKA's to these because I live in a very moist area so the trails are mostly wet and sloppy so i needed something knobby to accommodate these conditions. Another very good thing about these tires is that they are fairly fast rolling and don't feel like you're pedaling big tractor tires, even at a low psi. Weaknesses: A bit on the heavy side. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Carvins Cove Duration Product Used: 6 months Purchased At: Just The Right Gear, Bike Setup: All mountain
