anyone using/liking these tires for xc in MI? What size(s) are you using? With or without tubes?

Been using the TT's out at poto and various other trails for over a year now. I like the Exception 2.0's with tubes and I have a ust set that works good also. The mimo is a sweet cross tire but haven't had the chance to use the mountain size. The TT 1.9 is very thin and is good on everything but sand unless you are carefull.

Thanks Apple Green,
Do you like the Exception 2.0 TT's both front and rear? I always run tubeless. Do they inflate well?

both because of the lighter weight I don't know if they make an exception ust. stans works fine but you do have to put a little extra in

I don't use UST tires because of their weight.

Have you also tried their Mimo or High Roller tires at the Poto? Michigan trials seem to fit the Mimo description:
"The Mimo was designed to be raced on medium soil and loose-over-hardpack courses. The MiMo performs on loose terrain due to the tightly spaced, circular-knob tread pattern."
