from Orange County, CA USA Date Reviewed: April 18, 2009 Strengths: Light weight, seals up fast with Stans, very good grip in all kinds of conditions considering the low knobs. Weaknesses: Slow, the slowest tire I have ever used. I used a tube tire setup with Stan's latex so I can't say what the performance is with a tube. I used this only on the back. No matter what the ground composition or condition it felt like I was peeling velco, good for traction, bad if you exepect to go fast. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Laguna Wilderness Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $57.00 Purchased At: LBS Similar Products Used: sSpecialized FastTraks- good, WTB Mutano Raptor- good, Nevegals- good, Maxis Mono Rail- good Bike Setup: 5.5 Fox Float fork and RP3 shock
