Strengths: Can take hits, Rails ruts very well, Point it where you want and it goes.
Weaknesses: Heavy? meh grow a a pair and stop being a weight weenie. Not the fastest rolling tire out there but its meant for decents...I use it in an AM/Trail setting.
Bottom Line:
I run the 2.5" version on the front of my Cannondale Prophet with a 140mm Revelation with a Maxle. The tire tracks well and doesn't wash out like some others I have ridden. It doesn't follow ruts, its eats them and blows over them with ease. Must have a TA fork with this tire as its pretty much point and shoot. Wherever you point your wheel, it'll go and grips rocks fairly well. I'm using a smaller sized tube (for 2.10" wide tires, pumped up) and lets the casing compress and mold to the terrain. I got this from a friend who didn't need it and was practically new. Great tire.
