got some but haven't ridden that bike much.

fast, seem better under higher pressure, bit sketchy in loose or wet corners, clear well .

no trouble with sidewalls yet but ripped a knobble off on a very fast flinty descent which was annoying 👿

i went through the sidewall after 4 days in last years transwales, now moved on to specilized purgatory 2bliss, they seem to be lasting longer so far and the grip is much better.

destroyed the tread on mine in no time at all but they seemed to work fine whilst doing it, not rocky round here so can't comment on the sideway toughness though.
