How good? What for?

I thought about picking up some light version of it.

I got one brief ride on my new ones before getting rained on.
I have the lites at 2.1.
Skinny, low profile tire that has incredible handling.
I mean they pull you into the turn like you were tied to a ski boat.
Not as fast as the pythons generally but much better grip and actually accelerate
better esp. downhill and up.
I wish they were a little wider is all.

Rained out? Would you then say it is a hardpack only tire?

What I meant was I got rained out.
The trails here in Texas get muddy pretty easy and once they are
this time of year it takes a week or two to dry out.
So I didnt get but an hour of riding time on them.
