Strengths:
Terrible grip on the surface it's intended too. At the same time very low rolling resistance. In steead of the ever lower pressure trend, you can put these also a bit harder (rolls much faster) and still have more grip than nearly any other tire out there. Very strong sidewalls guarantee that you wont have to walk down....
Weaknesses:
I had it in durometer60 sticky rubber. This is a racing compound. Obviously they were gone after 4 days of hardcore riding. You know it when you buy them but it's an expensive hobby this way. Sponsors? do you hear me?
