from Ludvika, Sweden Date Reviewed: March 10, 2003 Strengths: This is a review of the Hurricane GX Light, not sure what the difference is compared to Hurricane GX. Been using these tires for almost a year now, well, at least the non winter part of the year. I must say I'm positively surprised, I bought these with a rather big discount and I had hardly heard of the brand previously. I like semi-slick tires and my IRC Mythos XC Slicks were worn out so I decided to try something different. As I am a XC rider I have rather high pressure in the tires so I don't know how they behave with less pressure, but they seem pretty puncture resistant. I have not had any punctures so far (knock on wood). I was looking for 1.95 wide but they got only 2.10, but they feel fast any way. They are fast, doesn’t wear out fast, good grip for semi-slicks, looks OK. Weaknesses: Not so light, despite the name. A bit hard to get off and on. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Any trail will do... Duration Product Used: 1 Year Price Paid: $14.00 Purchased At: Lindbergs Cykel och sport Similar Products Used: IRC Mythos XC. WTB NanoRaptor Bike Setup: Gary Fisher Paragon ´02. Stock except chain (PC-69) and SRAM 9.0 Cassette.
