Had some nobby nics a few years back that were shit at best and lasted about 6 rides before the sidewall split. How tough are the snakekin fat alberts and how do the seal tubeless?

Do they "come up big"?

Used Snakesin FA's in the Alps a few years ago (rocky Zermatt). No issues. An ok tyre, jack of all trades, master of none.

I use a Nobby Nic DD on the back of my FS and no damage to report as of yet.

The 2.4's come up like real 2.4" tyres

no issues yet with mine, and they've done the Alps twice. I only run the std tyre on the front, UST on the rear.
