Date Reviewed: April 21, 2009 | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Price Paid: |
$17.00 | | Strengths: | Braking
Cornering (provided you lean in hard, which I do, so positive)
Cheap - (note:£17 (not $17) for a tire this good is quite incredible) | | Weaknesses: | Weight (a little over advertised, heavy for climbing) in either size | | Similar Products Used: | Nevegal, Maxxis HR, Conti MK, Michelin DH24 | | Bike Setup: | RM-ETSX, Crossmax enduro wheels...
Rest irrelevant to review | | Bottom Line: | Although heavy (read: hard work to heft uphill), I find this to be a very good front tire.
I havent tried it in the rear, so cannot comment on its abilities there - however, I definately recommend the combination of Gazzaloddi dual rear and Gazzaloddi G front
A few things worth pointing out:
1) Cornering - if you like to lean in agressively, then this is a tire for you. The central treads stand up tall, and unless you really lean over, you won't bring the cornering treads into play.
2) Weight - its not light, unless you really need its grip, youre gonna be punishing yourself unneccessarily on the climbs (if youre not a strong and fit climber, you probably won't make it up at all)
So...
Overall, a good front tire for agressive AM riding | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
