Strengths:
1) Easy to mount, airs up with floor pump 2) has NEVER leaked or flatted 3) Rolls faster than you'd think with such an aggressive tread 4) Rails corners / amazing grip on loose & sandy singletrack
Weaknesses:
1) Slightly heavy (??), but doesn't ride like it 2) Not a tire for muddy conditions (but not a problem where I live in the Southwest)
Similar Products Used:
In UST, only S-Works Roll-X 2Bliss (in standard, too many to count: Kenda, Michelin, IRC, WTB, Panaracer...)
Bike Setup:
Gunnar Ruffian SS / Bontrager Mustang UST rims / '07 Fox 32 F100X / XT V-brakes & levers with Nokon cables / other stuff...
Bottom Line:
Terrific UST tires, can't believe how well they roll with such an aggressive tread. They rail corners in loose and sandy conditions (desert singletrack) than my Nevegals would wash out on. Fast. I've been a tubeless convert for 3 months and I won't be going back to tubes. THM: Amazing UST tire, incredible price. I'd buy more if my shop had any left in stock...
