    These any good? Specifically the Eskar( 2.3 trail tyre) and the Storm (2.0 wet/mud) in dual compound 2bliss flavour?

    I’ve got a set of the captains on my race bike and a set of storms on my singlespeed. Both work great in the conditions they are meant for, storms have obviously had a good trial over the winter. I’d use them again when they wear out.

    Are you running them tubeless? What are the sidewalls like?

    They’re not too bad, but they don’t seal as well as Bontrager Tubeless ready.

    The Eskar’s good, but quite slow. I’d far sooner have a Mud-X over a Storm though.

    Storm – brilliant in horrible conditions
    Eskar 2.3 on the front of my 5 Spot and I love it. I don’t find it slow and it’s really grippy.
    I’ve also got a Captain on the front of my hardtails which again is a great tyre for most conditions, but a little shallow for muddy conditions.
    I really rate the Spesh tyres.

    Personally I’d go for the Control versions if running tubeless. The S-Works have very, very thin sidewalls, bit vunerable and floppy for my liking.
