Strengths:    it's light and minimal rolling resistance. it has a name recognizable by other mtbrs (respect may be something else). its really foldable. ad says it was good for mud

Weaknesses:    forget summer riding on S. Cali trails. nearly killed myself. that means a no on sandy mixed with loose sand on hardpack. scary on steep descents and scary on small jumps (1-3 ft). NO LATERAL TRACTION

Bottom Line:   
not for summer riding. its 1.95 is simply too small. if you value your bike (or life) do not put in the front tire. will be taking out and replacing after this week (i will give it a week to see other qualities of the tire). may work with mud so i am waiting for winter to check it out.

Strengths:    Great for mix of road and gravel. Able to grip through light snow covered paved trail. Whoops.

Weaknesses:    Haven't found any yet. But then again, I haven't used on any "real" trails.

Bottom Line:   
Good tires for the price. No problems with them. I wouldn't suggest buying these for those who ride in a lot of rocky conditions.
