Weaknesses:
not so good in mud or wet conditions

Bottom Line:
These tyres really do grip like a bee sting especially on hard pack rock and loose stone fire trails. They are also very fast as the pattern on the tyres is such that there are no large knobly bits just alot of grippy shapes which cover the whole tyre. Because the pattern is not symetrical it covers all points of contact with ground.
