has anyone had experience with this tire? looking to mount them up tubeless to my CX wheelset for use on hardpack/minor rock garden trails, fire road, and maybe some pavement commuting.

it looks like it has some nice outer knobs but i'm wondering if it will roll fast enough for hard pack.

Did you end up getting these tires? I was looking at getting some 42c for my CX for mainly gravel and light singletrack

Put these on my Vaya for gravel and singletrack, all in all nice tires, pretty light and I think they roll plenty fast on hard packed dirt. Certainly not a road tire but a nice all-rounder for when I'm not sure where I'll end up that day...

Nice! I see snow. How'd they grip in frozen conditions?

Haha picture is from the fall, not going to actually recommend these as a winter tire. Ground wasn't quite frozen just some early season snow..

Ha...I see. So if you did it over would you get the same set or go for something different? What grabbed me was these were priced pretty cheap and seem to have a decent all rounder tread. 42c is a plus a good plus. Wanted to go wider than my 35c marathon mondials

I'll buy them again. They do appear to wear a bit quickly but I expect that from any knobby tire.

Thanks for the info! These are currently on the top buy after new bars+tape along with a granny gear.
