Good winter tires
Good versatile tire for mixed conditions; It grips well on snow and mud at 40-60psi while still rolling smooth on tarmac. Great for winter riding when you face a combination of snow, broken pavement and smooth wet pavement. Used on my cannondale XR800.
Pros: excellent grip, fairly durable. Easy to mount to rim/change flats without tools. Good in slop but still a fast rolling tire.
Cons: side knobs can squabble on hard surfaces in faster turns, but not as much as other knobbies I've ridden. Soft compound so don't wear them out on tarmac. Not designed for deep mud or snow.
