Product Used For: 1 Month
Product Strengths:great townie tires. i ride them at 40psi and they give me 2inches of travel front and back. nice tread pattern, lets you take those tight turns.
Product Weaknesses:it would be nice if they were 2.4" instead of 2.5". it is a very tight fit on my bike
My Bike:old m300 cannondale cyclocross bike. used as my townie.

great tire.... would be nice if they made them in 1.95 or 2.0 for the guys who have older frames
Product Used For: 1 Month
Product Strengths:great cornering grip. Good cushioning when landing. Nice tread pattern. ( like my old school freestyle bike). FLATPROOF !!!
Product Weaknesses:tires can be TOO WIDE to fit some frames. I had an old GT Avalance and when I bought these tires, they rubbed both seat and chainstays. Had to switch to a 2.1 tire until i sold my frame and got a frame that can accommodate the size of these tires.Need a rim at least as wide as a rhyno lite. They looked seemed "Iffy" w. my Mavic 717 rims. Bike felt a little slower cuz of the weight and the width
My Bike:Santa Cruz Chameleon. XT drive train

Product Strengths:I ride these everday for the last year.These are the best Urban tires ever made. Nothing competes with maxxix tires. I will never ride anything but maxxis. I have a holly roller on the front and a hookworm on the back

I love this tire. I have had it for one year and it has held up for a long time.
Product Used For: 1 Year
Product Strengths:Awsome tire, I have used it pretty much every where. especialy on a Dj course me and a few buddies made an a friends yard. Its a wide tire wich makes it exellent in the jumps. And becuase its a slick wheel its fast and has good control in the streets.
Product Weaknesses:don't go doing skids with this tire sinces its slick. And if your into trails this doesnt have the greatest grip off road.

Jason a Roadie from Piscataway, Nj United States writes:
I grew up riding 20" freestyle bikes (still have my Eastern Bike) in the street, trails, ramps, you name it. Never really into MTB. Know that i am an old fogie and can't lift my 20" like i used to, i bought a cheapo MTB to commute with...get my juices flowin again. Imagine my delight when i found a tire fit for a freestyle bike to put on my 26". The difference between knobbies and these is unreal. I swear i feel like i'm back on my freestyle bike. They roll smooth, provide tons of cushion, and grip with confidence. I'm taking the Primo V-monsters off my freestyle and getting 20" hookworms! Buy'em!
Product Used For: 1 Month
Product Strengths:chunky bastard, smooth, seemingly strong, looks burly, a breeze to mount w/o tire levers.
My Bike:FS Mongoose DXR AL -- POS!
