Strengths:
Low Price, Low Rolling Resistance, Hard Wearing. Makes riding your MTB on the road a pleasure.
Weaknesses:
Hard rubber compound may cause problems on wet streets. I have not used these in the wet yet, buts its just my guess.
Similar Products Used:
These are my first set of Semi-Slick i have fitted to a MTB.
Bike Setup:
Scott Yecora 2001 converted for touring, commuting and load lugging.
Bottom Line:
If you are looking for a good set of road tyres for your MTB, you can't go far wrong with these. I have found it so easy to ride my bike the 8 miles to and from work scince fitting these, i wonder why i have not changed the tyres sooner. In the dry they perform realy well (not used them in the wet yet). The rubber is a nice hard-wearing compound, nothing seems to get stuck in these tyres. Highly recommended for touring / commuting.
