Strengths: Mud shedding, Climbing, PredictabilityWeaknesses: Hard Cornering, PavementBottom Line: Good off road tire. Will slip when cornered hard but fairly predictable. Will give a warning before it snaps out of line. Unlike Nevegals that just snap with cataclysmic results! 7 stitches to prove! Better bite in the mud as well.
Favorite Trail: Sta. Rosa
Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month

Strengths: Light, clears mud well, predictableWeaknesses: Mediocre gripBottom Line: I ride xc in mostly dry harpack, but spring can be sloppy in places and the nevegals don't clear the mud we have here at all, and I wouldn't think of using the sb's, which are great in dry conditions. I got the raijin b/c they are light and are supposed to clear mud well, and they live up to those promises really well. They don't have amazing traction, but they are pretty predictable. The tread isn't super fast, but the light weight makes acceleration and handling pretty lively.
