The aggressive central blocks of the BULLDOG will bite the terrain every time. Designed specifically for freeride and downhill, MRC MEDIUM rubber delivers an excellent mix of wear resistance and grip in grueling conditions.
Very high weight, but rolling resistance is OK. No real weakness but no real strenght too. Problems in fast corners on loose ground. Good traction on muddy ground.
I'd not buy it, imho the Maxxis is much better and lighter.

Strengths:
Excelllent grip. Low rolling resistance.
Weaknesses:
They wear kind of quickly and the sidewall is thin.
Jamis Dakar 2.0 XLT. Manitou 5 inch front and rear suspension. Full Shimano XT.
Bottom Line:
These tires are great in just about any condition. They slip on the wet stuff...but what tire doesn't? I've only had 1 flat in 1 year on them. They wear out sooner than I would like but it's not a bad compromise for the great traction and handling.
