HORSES FOR COURSES

What it says on the tin. Superb in soft and wet.
stay away from the dark side[roads].Hard pack hard work.
Great for hammering about in woods etc but will be tacking them off when doing some distance.

EXCELLENT WINTER TYRE, BETTER EVEN THAN TRAILRAKERS!

Superb grip in muddy / wet
Excellent clearance of mud
Even grips on rocks
Pricey? but got mine cheap on e-bay
Possible fast wear rate
Very pleased with this tyre, amazing traction in dreadful conditions; not too draggy either.
Much better on rocks than Trail Rakers (which I also rate very highly) as don`t slide out , can feel the sticky knobbles gripping on rock edges
Quite light too

NICE NOBBLY RUBBER

Great mud clearance
Great puncture resistance
Great grip
Great
Tad heavy
This is by far the best tyre i have ever used as it says on the tin it's mud clearance is excellent, i have yet to suffer one single puncture and on climbs the back doesnt spin out or lose grip.

I would definetly recommend this tyre to any aggressive winter riders.
