yep - i was totally unhappy with the mx51 (wore out really fast), i was ready to switch back to s12's (i switched because once s12's wear a bit, they loose so much traction.....)
i figured i'd try the mx31. at 10-12 lbs it was ok, similar to s12. at 6lbs, it grips like a trials tire. i'm sticking with mx31, traction was never an issue, it didn't wallow/sidewall flex at high speed. i'm sold on it.
have you had a chance to run the mx31 in really wet conditions?
now if i can just figure out a front. i'm running pirelli scorpion xc front, it's a nice tire but grabs the sides a bit too much in ruts, and climbs out/tracks up the side maybe more than i would like.
