Submitted by Bert a Weekend Warrior from Assen,Drenthe,Netherlands
Date Reviewed: September 13, 2009
Duration Product Used:3 months
Price Paid: $25.00
Strengths:Weight,weight and weight.
Weaknesses:Grip.
Similar Products Used:Nobby Nic, Racing Ralph.
Bike Setup:Cube reaction frame,Sram X0/X9 shifting gear, XT crank & wheels, Ritchey carbon seatpost/handlebar/stem, Rockshox SID front fork, Magura HS33 brakes. Total Weight=10,2 kgs.
Bottom Line:Great rear tyre. Haven't had one flat since new.Grip is much better than you would expect when you look at the profile.
Low weight is great, performs great in almost all circumstances as long as you put a nobby tire at the front (like the schwalbe rocket ron). When the rear tyre slips or starts skidding, this front tyre will pull you through and keep everything under control.
Great for cross country racing.
I would recommend this tyre to every rider exept free riders and downhillers.

Date Reviewed: May 18, 2009
Duration Product Used:3 months
Purchased At:LBS
Strengths:Fast!!! This tyre redused my training loop by 2.5 minutes on a 2 hour ride & I only run it on the back. Grips suprisingly well.
Weaknesses:I'm to scared to trust it in a race yet, I'm just worried it will flat on me.
Similar Products Used:Pythons, Larson, crossmarks, Ignitors, Serac, RR, NN, etc, etc
Bike Setup:Yeti ARC, race setup,
Bottom Line:If you are willing to run a tyre that may flat for the extra speed, try it. I will race it at the next dry race.
