| Strengths: |
Air volume, dual compound, agressive knobs, good traction, lower friction for his size and knobs, UST advantage. |
| Weaknesses: |
Too big for some xc frames, in my case, I had to cut a little bit of his lateral knobs of my rear tire to fits into my GT's I-Drive team frame, natural air loss of all UST tires easily fixed with Stan's seallant, knobs wear faster than others tires. |
