from Norman Date Reviewed: May 6, 2008 | | Favoriate Trail: | Clear Bay | | Duration Product Used: | 2 Years | | Purchased At: | Came with Bianchi M.U.S.S. | | Strengths: | Extrememly Fast rolling! Does not wear? It's a magic tire that will last twice as long a anything I've ridden. I've ridden them in all conditions for over 2 years and they still look new - It's weird. . . | | Weaknesses: | They don't shed mud quite as well as I'd like and behave strangely in sand (vibrate when accelerating). | | Similar Products Used: | Michelin Wildgripper, Continental Double fighter | | Bike Setup: | Stock 06' Bianchi MUSS | | Bottom Line: | I would recommend them for anyone who enjoys urban rides on their trail bike and doesn't want to change tires between rides. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

from Berkeley, ca Date Reviewed: April 25, 2008 | | Duration Product Used: | More than 3 years | | Purchased At: | Came stock on a Kona Fire Mountain | | Strengths: | Tread wear, especially on pavement. Cheap. Light. Tough casing gives good handling and flat protection. Tread is great on hardpack, loose over hardpack, rock, street. | | Weaknesses: | Not alot of overall grip. Anything loose or slimy is advanced mountsin biking on these tires. | | Bottom Line: | The durability and rigidity of the casing is the standout feature. I have a set of these tires that have been mounted the the same set of rims for a long, long time without ever coming off. Slime takes care of small thorns and few even get thru the casing. The bead is very strong and holds onto the rim firmly, and the stiff sidewalls resist rolling and pinching.
The tread itself works great on rock and hardpack. Not good, GREAT. There's not a ton of grip, but what's there is genuinly reliable. I go fast on these things. They aren't too bad on standing climbs, either. And the don't pack up mud too bad.
The tire is not a dedicated off road tire tho. Sand, little mud, etc will have your attention when riding these tires.
As someone who often ends up riding their trail bike on pavement, I'm tempted to get a set of these instead of the soft xc tires I usually get. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

from Lincoln, NE Date Reviewed: March 26, 2008 | | Duration Product Used: | More than 3 years | | Price Paid: |
$20.00 | | Purchased At: | Nashbar probably | | Strengths: | Excellent grip on pavement & hardpack - Excellent wear characteristics. | | Weaknesses: | Don't try it in mud! | | Similar Products Used: | Lots | | Bike Setup: | Commuter: XT components, mis-mash of other parts, $50 Steel frame - RST elastomer shock from my very first front suspension bike. | | Bottom Line: | I can't believe this tire hasn't been reviewed yet. I was just getting set to buy another set of these and was debating whether to try something new or just stick with the old dependable. I run this tire on my commuter bike which gets ridden about 80% pavement, 20% dirt singletrack. This is by far the best all-around tire I've found. I works great on dry, hard and semi-hardpack conditions. It's not the absoulte best tire for hardpack dirt you can find but it's much more versatile & long wearing than any of the other hardpack specific tires I've tried. It doesn't work in mud. I've got about 1500 miles on my current set and they've got quite a bit of tread left, but I thought I'd give them to a buddy that's wanting to get back into biking and go buy myself a brand new set. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
