2.4 DTC compund 710g, I looking for a tire about the same size but w/ a hair more traction and not much more weight - any suggestions ? I think the Cortez rolls great but just doesn't grip on hard turns. Thanx

For high desert conditions, the 2.35 Nev Stick-E works well (sand, loose over hardpack, slickrock, decomposed granite). Not sure how it would be on loamy surfaces.. yet...
