| FavoriteTrail: | Wompatuck, Hingham, MA |
| Duration Product Used: | Less than 1 month |
| Price Paid: | $80 |
| Purchased At: | Bike Barn, Whitman |
| Strengths: | Great traction! No leaks yet. Good cornering traction. |
| Weaknesses: | Nothing yet. |
| Similar Products Tried: | Kenda Nevagals, Specialized Fast Traks |
| Bike Setup: | Specialized Epic Expert, Mavic Crossmax Enduro wheels. |
| Bottom Line: | I love these tires! With the tubeless I feel they give me more traction than the Nevagals with tubes. I run these tires around 32psi where I used to the run my tubed tires between 25-30psi (I weigh 140) and yet the new Continentals give me better traction. I ride on rocky New England trails, mostly in Wompatuck Park, MA. I have yet to loosen the bead or spring a leak of any kind even when getting the tire jammed between rocks. I used to get leaks almost every trip with the tubed tires. I love them! |

| Purchased At: | wrench science |
| Strengths: | none. Ok, lightweight. prone to punctures. Sidewalls are destroyed after less than 300 miles. |
| Weaknesses: | bead seats poorly on a mavic 819. totally unpredictable in corners and techincal climbing. width is a totally made up number. My 2.1s are little 1.75 pizza cutters. I think some Conti engineer got his units wrong on his CAD program before sending to manufacturing. |

| Bottom Line: | these tires are the worst I have ridden in all my years of mountain biking. They drift. They're skinny for the advertised width. They wear fast. Traction is totally unpredictable. these tires are unnacceptable and dangerous. 0 chilis for value 0 chilis for performance -- PLEASE NOTE I rated the Verticals previously and got them confused with the Explorers. Totally different tires and totally different review. I recommend the UST Verticals. Stay away from the Explorers. -- font9a |

| Bottom Line: | A blowout on a rocky descent that could have been plenty bad (if the landing had been on a rock) has given me second thoughts about selecting this tire over my new Specialized Roll X tubeless tires. The Conti is fast and light, but its sidewalls may be a little suspect in rocky terrain. Otherwise, it's a pretty good tire. |

| Duration Product Used: | 2 Years |
| Price Paid: | $50 |
| Purchased At: | Local shop |
| Strengths: | Good all around performance, reasonably light for UST, pretty durable |
| Weaknesses: | Knobs wear quickly; a little pricey |
| Similar Products Tried: | Various Michelin UST |
| Bike Setup: | RM Blizzard, Fox Float RLC, SRAM gripshifts/XTR drivetrain, Crossmax, Avid mechanical discs |
| Bottom Line: | I switched to the Contis after having problems with sidewall wear on Michelin USTs. Not as light and fast as the Michelins, but pretty close. Works reasonable well in New England conditions; roots, rocks, wet, dry. I run them at 35-40 psi ( I weigh in at 200 lbs). I ride cross-country and do the occasional race. I have been very happy with these tires over the past two seasons. They have been very dependable (and I am pretty hard on tires). Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find them for under the list price. |

| FavoriteTrail: | This month its Telonics |
| Duration Product Used: | 3 months |
| Price Paid: | $55 |
| Purchased At: | The Path |
| Strengths: | Light weight. Rolls reasonable well and climbs better than one would think given the paucity of center knobs. Excellent all around performance except as noted below. |
| Weaknesses: | Short knobs wear quickly; late, straight line braking into a turn on loose over cement-like hardpack this tire will break loose until it gets over onto the sidewall knobs. The center knobs are few and too far apart. However, once you get the bike over (and apply some opposite lock steering to catch the bike as the rear breaks away)the tire hooks up again. For this reason I would NOT use this as a front tire. |
| Similar Products Tried: | In a 2.1: Specialized Roll-X 2.0; IRC Mythos; Panaracer Smoke; WTB Weirwolf, and probably a few others. |
| Bike Setup: | Turner 5 Spot |
| Bottom Line: | I purchased this tire because it resembled the larger 2.3 Conti Vert Pro and I thought it might be a good match for it. I read the reviews here AFTER I purchased the tire and thought I would regret my purchase. I don't. I've ridden this through rock gardens, down rock faces, through sand, hardpack, gravel streams beds, loose chutes, etc. The only consistent weakness is the one noted above. I'm frankly puzzled at the number of bad reviews. Maybe there have been some quality control issues in the past or this tire is just well suited to what and how I ride in Southern California, but I would pick this tire again over the WTB Weirwolf 2.1 it just replaced. The quick wear, sparse center knobs, and the quirky behavior noted above keep it from receiving better ratings. In all other conditions its an excellent tire. |

| FavoriteTrail: | Patapsco State Park |
| Duration Product Used: | 6 months |
| Price Paid: | $55 |
| Purchased At: | College Park Bikes |
| Strengths: | Climbs well, light, very low rolling resistance |
| Weaknesses: | Durability (many flats, blew out two beads) Does not corner well (front end washes out a lot) |
| Similar Products Tried: | IRC Mythos, Specialized Roll-X |
| Bike Setup: | Ellsworth Id, 5" travel front, 6" travel rear, Mavic CrossMax SL wheels, Hope Mini Brakes |
| Bottom Line: | Tires climb well but do not corner well at all. Front end washes out frequently. Durability is a major issue as I seem to have had a blow out every time out. Twice the bead blew out, and twice I got holes in the tires. I also had issues with the tire rolling off the bead and burping air. Don't know if this is the rim or the tire. With more than 50psi this was no longer an issue. I am 210lbs and ride hard. I went to specialized Roll-X with Stan's No Tube on the advice of a friend and this set up is working really well. Climbing not as good as the Continentals, rolling resistance is much higher, cornering is a large improvement, and no flats or blowouts. I have to keep the rear tire at 50psi or above or I will burp air at the bead. The fronts can go to 40psi with no problem. |

| Weaknesses: | Lack of grip in turns. Poor performance in sandy conditions. |
| Similar Products Tried: | IRC Mythos |
| Bike Setup: | 2004 C'Dale Scalpel 3000. Mavic Crossmax tubelss. |
| Bottom Line: | I can't believe how poorly this tires performs! I've had more front-end-washout crashes in the past 3 months than in the previous 10 years. I have absolutely no confidence in this tire in turns or on rough rock-strewn descents. In sand it is essentially worthless. It's supposed to be a 2.1 but seems much narrower to me. The result is the tire burrows down into the sand instead of floating like a true 2.1 Yes, it spools up quickly and rolls almost like a slick, but anything I gain on the smooth flats is lost in the way I have to baby it around turns and on descents. |

| FavoriteTrail: | Landahl Park |
| Duration Product Used: | 1 Year |
| Price Paid: | $30 |
| Purchased At: | ebay |
| Strengths: | Good traction. Roll and wear well. Good all around tire for most conditions. |
| Weaknesses: | I have had two tires in the past two weeks blow at the bead. Front on my Scalpel and rear on my SS. As a tubeless tire it is now useless. You can put a tube in it and it will be fine. Just sucks when you ruin expensive tubeless tires. My tire sealant had no affect on either puncture. I think I'm done with this tire. |
| Similar Products Tried: | Pythons, Wildgrippers. |
| Bike Setup: | Scalpel 1000 and a Kona SS. Both with Crossmax tubeless wheels. |
| Bottom Line: | Just like the previous review, my trust in these tires is gone. I'm gonna try the Kenda Kharma or Hutch Scorpion. Currently I'm really liking the Wildgrippers so I don't see a need for the Explorer considering the problems they have caused me. |

| Strengths: | Climbs well, light, good traction on hard pack. |
| Weaknesses: | As a front tire these tires give no warning before they break loose. |
| Similar Products Tried: | Panaracer Fire XC Pro UST |
| Bike Setup: | Gunnar Rock Hound with XTR and Rock Shox Pyslo SL. |
| Bottom Line: | These tires work well when it's dry, not quite as good when things get muddy. I have had these tires for 2 weeks and I have already had a puncture, odd considering I have only ridden modest XC terrain and kept the tires inflated to 40 psi. I like the Explorers as a rear tire, but I have found the front tires break loose in an alarming manner with no warning. For the price (a bit high) I would prefer the slightly heavier Panaracer Fire XC Pro. |

| Weaknesses: | A little tough to mount |
| Similar Products Tried: | Panaracer Fire XC UST and Huchinson Mosquito |
| Bike Setup: | Cannondale Scalpel |
| Bottom Line: | These tires perform well in a variety of conditions. I have used them in both wet and dry conditions on rock and root infested trails and have no issues with traction. The rear will spin just a bit earlier than the Panaracers would on a steep wet climb but on the flip side they are noticably lighter than the Panaracers. Time will tell if durability is up there but overall I am very happy with these tires. |

| Duration Product Used: | 1 Year |
| Price Paid: | $30 |
| Purchased At: | KEHA Sport |
| Strengths: | Great traction in dry conditions; very resistant against punctures; light (in view of the fact that it is an tubeless tire); slow wear and tear |
| Weaknesses: | hard compound: slippery in muddy conditions; looses pressure faster than other tires |
| Similar Products Tried: | WTB Velociraptor, Hutchinson Mosquito UST, Schwalbe Little Albert UST |
| Bike Setup: | Customized Cannondale Jekyll 4000SL |
| Bottom Line: | During the two years of riding the Explorer I never experienced any considerable problems on the trail. The hard compound makes the Explorer wear slowly (one pair per summer), at the expense of traction in muddy conditions. Another issue is that the Explorer looses air faster than other tubeless tires; spraying some silicone on the bead will solve that problem. The Explorer is very resistant against punctures or pinch flats. Riding the tire with too low pressure (<2.0 bar) may cause damage to the side wall. The Explorer is a great XC-tire for summer or dry conditions; in wet conditions the Explorer is average, tires with softer compound will probably perform better. |

| Strengths: | Reasonably light, great lugs, ease to install |
| Weaknesses: | I got mine cheap, but these are pricey at retail prices. |
| Similar Products Tried: | You name it but mainly Michelin Comp S UST's and Python's |
| Bike Setup: | RM Blizzard, Zoke Marathon, SRAM/RaceFace mix. CrossRoc wheels, Hayes discs |
| Bottom Line: | I got a steal on these from Ebay. Paid $55 for two! As a front tire, I love this this rubber. Went on easier than any other tire I have used and so far, very durable. I am running them at 35-40 psi depending on trail conditions and feel these hook up and are more predictable than just about anything I have ridden. As a rear tire, they are ok but I think front works better. Can't understand the bad press below but I guess we all have our own experiences to draw from. 5 chilis for performance, 3 for value (at retail). |

| FavoriteTrail: | hmmmm... |
| Duration Product Used: | 1 Year |
| Price Paid: | $40 |
| Purchased At: | web shop |
| Strengths: | Good all-around tire. Roll fast, absorbent UST ride, good cornering |
| Weaknesses: | Loses about 3-5psi overnight, doesn't seem to be a problem on trail. Very sensitive to air pressure, and optimum psi varies according to conditions. UST weight. |
| Similar Products Tried: | Michelin Comp S UST & tubed, Jet S UST, countless tube tires |
| Bike Setup: | 02 Devinci Moonracer, Mavic CrossRoc UST wheels |
| Bottom Line: | Again, I can't believe all the negative reviews here. I can understand punctures, they will happen even with UST tires. Otherwise I think maybe riders are thinking UST allows you to run 25psi. Here's my advice, for what it's worth- UST allows you to run 5 to 7 psi less than the equivalent tubed tire. Any less is asking for sidewall problems, and poor cornering. The Explorer is a good all-around performance/race tire. It is very sensitive to air pressure. I initially ran about 30 psi in mine (front tire), and it would wash out on loose/sandy off-camber turns. Upping the pressure to 35-40 psi made it an entirely different tire. It rails and rips on anything except clay mud, but still rolls way fast. Conti knows how to make a MTB tire. UST tires still conform to the ground better than tubed tires at higher pressures, they just roll faster. And pinch flats are not a concern. I've ridden UST for the last year without a flat. Check UST out if you are a trail rider, non-weight weenie, or heavier than average bike riders. 4 flamers for value, 5 for performance. |

| Duration Product Used: | 6 months |
| Price Paid: | $40 |
| Purchased At: | Japan |
| Strengths: | Decent rubber compund in terms of grip. Reasonable traction, I like the tread pattern as a good gripper that still rolls well but it worked much better as a non UTS tyre. Tyre seals well on rin with minimum fuss. |
| Weaknesses: | Punctures very easily. not just from thorns but also rocks and pinch-flats itself. What is the point of a tubeless tyre that repeatedly pinchflats itself? |
| Similar Products Tried: | Huchinson Mosquitoes, Scorpions and Michelin Jets (all UTS) |
| Bike Setup: | Giant NRS One, mostly stock with a few upgrades. |
| Bottom Line: | Very disappointed in this tyre. Have always considered Continental tyres to be the best on the market but they have not done well with their entry into UTS. I got my first puncture using this tyre only a few days into using it whilst racing in the Transalp in Europe 2002. the flat was caused (as were many more to come) by sharp rocks cutting straight through the tyre itself. I weigh only 65kg and run 30 psi which I feel is apropriate when running tubeles yet the tyre has actually pinch-flatted on me at least three times too. I have taken the tyres off the bike and am about the throw them in the bin. I've counted nine patches on one tyre with more holes still needing repairs. Continental UTS tyres use materials far too easy to cut right through which is not acceptable, especially when thats all you have to keep the air in. If the tubeless system is to succeed, all manufactures and especially Continental are going to neeed to make their tyres tougher. Why not use a fine woven cloth material like on quality conventional tyres which could be designed to make the tyre much harder to penetrate and cut. For the price we pay for tubeless tyres the consumer deserves that. Just vulcanising some inner rubber to the existing outer tread rubber is no way strong enough. very disappointed Mr Continental ps anyone with a UTS tyre to recommend please email |
