Goat Date Reviewed: February 19, 2013 Strengths: Works better on the rear. Good lean angle. Just sit & spin on rear.will climb anything you have the leg for. Good winter rear tire. Weaknesses: Sorry people I thought this tire sucked on the front. This tire did a lot of squirming & wandering on the ups & downs. When things got tight or primitive & slow tec it just didn't hold a line well. Rode for about3 months. Removed the Bromson & replaced it with a Minion 2.3 & things got way better. Bottom Line:

Easy to mount Tubeless on Stans Crest rims No problem with sidewalls yet although mine is the Race Version not the TL-R version. Can lean the bike low Weaknesses: I still hope that they make these for TL-Ready at 650 grams. Those UST Bronson 2.3's are HEAVY!

from Issaquah, WA USA Date Reviewed: January 28, 2012 Strengths: Grips well in all conditions. Does well in the wet & muddy conditions in Washington state. They can handle slick logs & roots, loose dirt, rocks, etc. Huge improvement over my old Purgatories, and they're also not as heavy. These are great tires & they're now my tire of choice. Weaknesses: Great overall all conditions XC and all mountain tire. They could have made them with slightly harder rubber, so they'll last a little longer. The sidewalls of the non-race version seemed very thin, (120 tpi) but they are cheaper. I bought the race version & they're holding up very well so far. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Tolt MacDonald, Carnation WA Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $45.00 Purchased At: Universal Cycles, Po Similar Products Used: I've used Specialized Purgatory 2.2, The Captain Control 2.0, WTB Prowler & Velociraptors.

from Billings, mt Date Reviewed: May 26, 2011 Strengths: EXCELLENT all around tire. I tried several before settling on this one. I ride trails with a little of everyting, and this handles it all well, even mild downhill. VERY impressed. Weaknesses: Doesn't quite shed mud as well as I expected, but doesn't cake up either. A little pricey, but its a recently released tire, will proly come down when it's been out awhile.
