Duration Product Used:
6 months
Price Paid:
$30.00

online
Strengths:
Amazingly fast-rolling
Weaknesses:
Roll like you're in sand if you under-inflate; pinball off gravel & debris; mine wore out in less than 1000 miles.
Similar Products Used:
generics, Hutch, IRC, Kenda
Bike Setup:
Dakar XLT, Nixon, X.9, RaceFace, Avid, 819's
Bottom Line:
My Dakar is my 'everybike' -- I use it for commuting, utility, trails, all my riding. The Micros are silly-fast when you inflate them to the right psi for your weight (I weigh 230+ & need 60psi);wet doesn't seem to matter, but loose surfaces sure do! Also, they wear too fast for me; I'd go thru 5-6 of these a year if I kept up buying them.
