Is it good in the mud/rocks/roots etc?
anyone?
Yes, I've been raving of these tyres for a couple of months now! Excellent on roots (well as excellent as a tyre on roots can be!) and good on wet chalk. I ride around South Downs, so cant comment on wet rock, but given the abilities on roots and the volume of the tyre, I expect them to be good on rocks.
The only downfall is they dont have a UST or at least a tough sidewall version. They are tough to first inflate tubeless, I had to run them with an inner for a while. Mine are tubeless now, but I have had to patch them due to holing them on 1st ride.
I should say, I only have 1 on front. Not tried it on rear.
Yep run them on the hardtail all winter last year and this, front and back.
Great tyres little sketchy in places but then what do you expect with mud and roots combined.
Will get another set when these ones give up. No sign of that yet.
I'll have a set for sale if you're interested? Just about to go 650b. One is 2.25 and the other is 2.1 but both are of a good width.
Great tyres btw, great for loose conditions.
