Strengths: Low rolling resistance. Grip in all conditions, really good in the Pacific Northwest roots. Cornering. Easy tubeless setup. 2.3 width is perfect for AM / XC riding. Durability. Tubeless feel money.Weaknesses: Not the greatest tire in mud. They do really good in medium wet, but cake up pretty easy in medium - heavy mud. In dry conditions knobs seem to give under heavy braking.Bottom Line: I've got maybe 40 rides on these tires and really love them. The low rolling resistance is instantly noticeable, the grip on wet rood is good to great, and they corner very stable with grip and hardly any sidewall give. In heavy mud they do cake up, but not enough of a concern to change tire during the wettest months. In dry conditions knobs seem to give under heavy braking. Durability seems great so far with maybe 500+ off road miles, many fire road climbs and very little degradation in tread. I like!

Strengths: Strong, grip like mountain goats, easy setup, sidewall tractionWeaknesses: Slightly heavy, not cheap although not near as expensive compared to some other tubelessBottom Line: I have 50 miles on these now and can say they grip unlike any tire I have used before. They were super easy to set up tubeless on WTB TCS wheels with a floor pump. After 50 miles on the rocky hard surfaces here in AZ they show zero signs on wear which is more than I can say for other tires Ive used. The desert out here just eats tires but they hold up great and they greatly reduce vibration on the trail compared to tube setups. Overall I am very happy with these are will buy again.
