Strengths: Durable, good on rocks, gravel
Weaknesses: Hard to remove tyre when punctured
Bottom Line:
Used on front only.
Best all rounder I've come across. Keeps good line through loose ground and not too bad on tarmac and snow / ice. Wet tree roots and wet rocks are the only worry.
I would only consider putting this on the back on dry surfaces.
Doesn't puncture easily but when it does it's hard to remove from the wheel.
After 2 years the tread is pretty chewed up but the performance is still OK.
