2.4 HA! This is not a big volume tire.

BUT.. it does roll really well and it does indeed meet my needs.

I have only done one ride on it and only as a front tire paired with a python 29 on the rear. (on a night ride too..)

The combo offered speed in a straight line and predicable cornering.

This is all I can ask for.

Testing gear on a night ride is kinda cool since you can't see what you are using but you know if it doesn't work.

I never lost traction in a corner and they didn't feel much slower than the Python that was on there before.

This tire is by far quicker feeling than the Nevegals and the Rampages. The lesser volume might be a downer on really rocky stuff.

This seems to be a better all around tire than the Ignitor which is an Ok but sort blah tire.

More to come. Maybe a pic too.

super duper

I rode today at Allaire with this tire up front w/ the python on the rear.

The conti was killer up front while the pyhton was less than great on the rear.

I think I might put another Trail King on the rear to make an even pair for winter riding.

Damn you, just put the Neve's up front and Pythons in the rear on both bikes.
