Description:A tubeless tire designed to satisfy the most demanding rider in any situation. The Enduro 2Bliss has a higher air volume for both a plush ride and protection from pinch flats. Pro level offers longer wearing tread compound than our S-Works racing version. Throw our Flak Jacket puncture protection into the mix and you''ve got a bullet-proof lightweight tire.

Favoriate Trail:Siouxon or Ape Canyon
Duration Product Used:3 months
Price Paid: $39.00
Purchased At:Specialized
Strengths:Tough, good traction, larger diameter.
Weaknesses:slightly heavy, doesn't roll as well as a few others.
Similar Products Used:(UST)Hutch. Scorpions, Hutch. Pythons
Bike Setup:Ellsworth Truth, XTR,Romic,Psylo SL, UST 3.1's
Bottom Line:I kept getting rock puncture flats with the Hutchinson tires. So, I figured I would try the Enduro Pro. I knew it was a little heavier than the others - but I AM GLAD I SWITCHED.

This tire has not punctured yet on the same trails that the other two flatted every ride (very rocky, sharp stuff evidently). This tire hooks up real well in ALL conditions for my area (Pacific NW). The other day I rode it in the snow and dropped the psi to about 18psi. IT ROCKED.

If you hate flats & need a tough, XC tire - buy this tire.
If you are racing and need a fast roller for the dry stuff - buy the Hutch Python.

Favoriate Trail:the tunnel
Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
Price Paid: $40.00
Purchased At:specialiized.com
Strengths:easy to mount & air up, holds air very well. rolls well for a 2.2 knobby, hooks up on anything. very good in loose dirt and rock, strong casing, not too heavy.
Weaknesses:none
Similar Products Used:weirwolf, mutanoraptor, michelin xls, python
Bike Setup:tracer, x3.1, deore & lx, black, hayes.
Bottom Line:this is not only the best ust tire i've found its one of the best tires i've ever used period. If you ride on any kind of loose, rocky, moon dust trails, get this tire. this tire airs up like there was a tube inside and it holds air very well.
runnng the enduro almost seems like you have added a 1/2 inch of travel to your bike. the weirwolfs hook up as good or better but won't hold air and just don't roll and aren't too good on hard pack. the michelins hold air well and hook up ok but seem weak (knobs rippiing off.) pythons and mutanos are ok but not really suited to aggresive trail riding. not too expensive for a ust either. the only question is how long they wiil last before wearing. this is the tire i would take if i was going on a trip and could take only one tire.
