Specs: Available in with Aramid bead, Race casing and DNA rubber or steel bead comp with standard rubber, both weigh 1010 grams.
The Graffiti UK (Ultimate Kombat) uses large, flat blocks of tread for superb traction on the hardpack surfaces of dirt jumps and park riding. Although this tire shines in the dirt, it works surprisingly well for aggressive urban riding, too.

I have been using them for a few months and so far am impressed with them. They are quite large and roll well. They work well on lots of different surfaces such as roads, hardpack and grass.
Weaknesses:
Not great in mud as they slip a bit.

Bike Setup:
reken, vanilla 125, gears
Bottom Line:
not a bad tire. i haven't ridden it on the trail yet, but i don't think it'll do any better than the holy rollers, which are almost half the price. the holy rollers are softer and have less rolling resistance. like i said, these aren't bad, but if i had to do it over again, i'd go with the holy rollers.
2 chilis for value due to the price
4 chilis overall cause they do the job they're advertised for.
