Strengths:    Grips and corners well, Great braking, predictable, durable. For AM riding, the 2.4 climbs well, and feels stable bombing downhill.

Weaknesses:    Narrow profile, Somewhat harder rubber wants to slide out on angled climbs. High Priced.

Bottom Line:   
My first Hutchinson tire. I bought the 2.4 for AM application, and it's not listed as Enduro or Airlight, so dunno what that's about. I originally planned to use this on the front, however, when I got the tire mounted, the profile of the 2.4 was more narrow than my WTB Bronson 2.3. However, it has performed very well as a back tire, and I mounted it in the FRONT orientation on the rear (arrows on the sidewall). It gripped better than the Bronson I used to have on the rear, tracks well, the braking was great, and it was really predictable when it would break loose. The only problem I had was that on some of the rocky climbs, if you didnt hit it straight on, the tire would sometimes slide out. After a couple months, the treads still look new though, so I expect this tire will last me a WHILE, which is good considering how much I paid for it.
