WTB WeirWolf Reviews

Description: (from wtb.com)
Inspired and designed by WTB Pro cross country & downhill racer Mark Weir, the design features a fast-rolling, soil piercing central tread that is ramped for low roll resistance and square-edged for powerful braking. Large transitional openings between knobs channel soil outward, enhancing traction as progressive staggered outside knobs provide maximum support in leans and corners.
* Deep tread

Great tire for the southwest Cons none Verdict Great performance and price. reviewed by guest on May 22, 2009   Pros Long lasting tire. Cons To the guy that said they wear quickly... what do you consider "quickly"? Verdict I put tons of miles on my last set. Been riding ONE SET for 5 years!!! Yeah, they were worn out when I finally replaced them, but they lasted through the tough Arizona terrain like a champ. I race Expert downhill and gave these tires a pounding on my xc bike. reviewed by TMWJR777   on May 17, 2009   Pros Avail. in 2.5" width Cons Are kinda soft and wear quickly Verdict If you ride in loose dry conditions, a great tire. Not good for wet or muddy conditions though. reviewed by slap8up   on April 21, 2009   Pros Killer grip on loose flat trails and absolutely the best bite in the worst of sandy conditions. Cons Weak side knobs cause a lot of shifting and sideways sliding when riding in hard packed, rocky, and root laden trails, especially when run at low pressures Verdict Overall good tire, but I'd personally spend my money on Velociraptors instead. reviewed by Xerien   on April 17, 2009   Pros Great value - paid $29 per. Excellent traction in all conditions. Corner better than anything I've ever ridden. Can run at higher pressures and still maintain good traction. They look great and leave cool tracks! :) Cons Load up a bit and get slick in mud or sticky soil. Wear fast on pavement - not great if you have to ride to the trailhead. A bit heavy. Verdict Highly recommend for anyone on any budget. These have been the best upgrade I've done to date that has immediately improved my game. They corner and stop so well, I find myself pushing much harder into the corners. If they do break loose, it only takes a minor correction to hook back up and continue - if they don't correct themselves. reviewed by 2leftfeet   on December 22, 2008   Pros Hooks up great in loose/rocks/rooty conditions, good in the wet, clears mud well, 2.5 just barely fits in my Skareb fork, easy to mount on mavic rims Cons none Verdict These are great east-coast tires, I frequently have traction climbing with others have slipped on a root or something. Changed my riding for the good. reviewed by craig_m   on July 18, 2008   Pros confidence to push the front hard into loose corners ,excellent under hard braking Cons tread flex on hard surface,tread clogging in mud Verdict top tyre for multi trail use reviewed by blakeovard   on July 24, 2007   Pros It does what it is designed for. piced right for any budget. Cons nothing. great tire. Verdict Buy them now, put them on your bike and then go out and ride!
