I use Fat Albert on the front of my Heckler outside of our Winter season 😉
Really like them, not too heavy and seem to be decent sidewall protection. Snakeskin 2.4. Plenty of grip on the corners.
UST Crossmark on rear.

Have used both because of On-One's cheapness.
Monkey is much grippier on wet rocks/roots (IMO), I think it's a heavier tyre but it's not noticable when riding.

Really enjoying the Smorgasbord on the back as well, looking forward to more On-one tyres 😀
