To echo the other reviews, these tyres are super fast, grippy and light. The core issue with them is they are very fragile and cut very easily. Both the front and rear after almost every ride have noticeable wet spots from latex that has sealed cuts and holes in the tyres. If you ride in anything remotely flinty then avoid these. if you ride on fast hardpack trails then buy them, you’ll love them.

I wanted something that would work well on paved road surfaces, but also on rougher ground, hard packed cycle routes, mud and debris etc. These are barely slower than my slicks on the road, but much more sure footed on looser or sloppier surfaces. I have slid a little going uphill over very bumpy, muddy ground, but for my needs they’re perfect.
