This is actually a recommendation for the 700x40mm version I have on my gravel grinder. The tire rolls fast and gives good traction. I ride dirt roads and ST with no problems.
Pros Fast rolling and smooth. Great gravel grinder tire.
I picked these up at a bike swap meet for 30 bucks a pair. Even at that price I feel as though I was robbed. I sliced my tire front open on my second time out. To use as a rear would be okay in the right conditions, however, mossy rocks and wet clay can make climbing tricky. I would not recommend to anyone who plans to ride when wet or anything outside of the dry, crusty conditions they were designed for.
Pros Lightweight, Fast Rolling, Great when dry or dusty.
Cons Thin casing, slices easy on sharp rocks. Small tread blocks make for a horrible ride if wet/tacky.
Came on my stock build, if it come on yours see how you like it, but prepare for an upgrade.
Pros
Ok cornering, ok traction, ok durability.
Cons
Thank |everything was ok. Nothing blew me away.
