Description
We've raised the bar on ourselves once again...redesigning the Fast Trak. Using not only rider feedback, experience, and knowledge, we've taken tread design a step further by manipulating each knob of the new Fast Trak with FE Analysis. The result is less rolling resistance, more traction when you need it, all in a lightweight package. Adaptive Tread technology for Competitive XC riders.

Pros: Fantastic rolling resistance and good grip even on "not so hardpack" conditions. Seals up great as tubeless.

Cons: $50 a tire is pricey.

Recommendation: The price is actually spot on for the performance these tires put out.

Pros: supple casing
fast rolling
good grip for a micro knob XC tire

Cons: none really, for what it's made for it works really really well.

Recommendation: Better than the old in every way. More grip, and less rolling resistance. This would be a great XC tire for most riders. Faster than the Ground Control and Captain, more grip than the Renegade.
