Hmm interesting, i was told by someone who seems pretty knowlegable that it was a tire designed for european grass tracks. Was told by another rider it was scary in wet rocks. I didn't give the tire a chance and put the mt 18 on the front because it's familiar to me and thought a known entity on the front would be good for working on getting the bike dialed in. I still have it so after the mt 18 i guess i'll give it a shot. I though it was more of a soft condition tire. The MT 18 is the tire of choice amongst New England harescramblers. they spend a lot of time in roots and rocks, wet and dry!!
