from Loma Linda, CA Date Reviewed: September 4, 2008 Strengths: Very Cheap (7.99/each). Light. A 2.1 is about a 2.2~2.3. Good for sands. Weaknesses: They don't manufacture anymore? Very thin, puncture vines (goatheads) easily pierce through. Hard to find the perfect pressure. Weird tread design which could be redesigned to be more efficient and improve traction. Flings little pebbles and mud and dust against the bike and into your eyes! Have not tried in mud but looks like it would be a problem. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: looking for one Duration Product Used: 6 months Price Paid: $8.00 Purchased At: Performance Bike Similar Products Used: Panaracer Fire XC Pro, WTB Velociraptors, Kenda Kwickers, Kenda Koyote, CST etc Bike Setup: Using it on my Trek 4900.
