Does what they say!
Super light and grippy as being known for. I ride in Southern, Orange County - California. I really like this tire for blue and black trails. NOT SO MUCH for really steep descending. I have this and the Racing Ray combo, on a 2020 Pivot-429 Trail... and on a 2016 Santa Cruz Tallboy. Yes. I like em that much!

Fast and Fun tire
I was searching for a fast rolling XC tire and this one always comes up as the best, it's hard to find but I got one on biketiresdirect. Super happy with it and can't wait to put a lot of miles on it.
