I said no serious rider uses some sort of cheapo Geax(or any other tire) > think panaracer Dart/smoke which do indeed stink.

Back to the AKA.

I have used these quite a bit. the grip on hardpack is great. I have used them front and rear and the lateral grip is awesome. They still do well in dust on crust conditions but not as well as say the Ardent.

the high volume casing is plush and provides great absorption of smaller terrain variation.

They roll very well but not as well as the micro knobbies would suggest. I suspect Maxxis Ikon's and kenda slant six's roll faster but probably arent not as plush or as durable. Like all other Geax TNT tire I think you shouldnt have any issues with durability.

overall this is great dry conditions and most terrain tires for people who like speed with out giving up to much cornering grip.
