      Duration Product Used: 3 months
      Strengths: Fast rolling, amazing climbing and braking traction, easy to convert w/ stans, super cushy and plush, relatively light
      Weaknesses: Hates mud of any sort, very drifty in corners (more so than other conti's)
      Similar Products Tried: vertical, gravity, leader, nevegal, z-max.
      Bike Setup: 07 teocali super w/ thomson twins, stans, esi grips, wtb rocket
      Bottom Line: great rear tyre if you want something for putting in miles on hard and or dry terrain, would be great to soften up a hardtail. Don't even think about it if you ride in mud. Not suitable IMO as a front tyre. Overall rating is based on it being sold as a dry conditions tyre.
      Value Rating: 4 Overall Rating: 4
