Got these stock with my Fuse, front and rear. Two seasons in and I’m still on the same pair, figure I’ll get half a season more. My local trails are clay based hardpack with the odd rocky rooty section so not the hardest wearing terrain but the durability is impressive. So is the grip for this terrain. Not the fastest running tire but a decent compromise. Some cross hatching in the rear tire sidewalls but comes with the territory when running tubeless at low pressure. Have another pair I bought on sale waiting in the wings…

I decided to use this tire after visiting with my local Specialized dealer who sold me my Epic Evo last June. His advice was spot on and they handled very well in dry conditions with lose rock and very steep punchy climbs. I actually put it on both front and back. I felt in control and very confident with it. I plan to use the same setup in my next triathlon which will have similar terrain.

Great traction. Heavy duty casing should provide good puncture protection.

Excellent rear tire.

I have gone through several of these tires in the last few years. My only complaint is this tire has a relatively short life span. The side knobs will delaminate from the casing after approximately six months regardless of wear forcing you to replace the tire.

Great traction on various surfaces. Not too heavy, nice and wide for our Florida Sugar Sand. Haven’t tried on wet surfaces yet, but looking forward to it!

Great rear tyre - real good rolling

Better than expected! Insane grip! We'll see about the durability, but specialized put a lot of research into these tires, so the expectations are high!

This is an amazing rear tire. I run the 2.3 (which measures slightly larger than advertised). It is very fast rolling, has good grip, climbs well, and great braking traction. The puncture protection has been very nice as well. I would certainly buy this tire again.

I use the 29x2.3 as a rear tire and it has fantastic traction and braking. The handling is very consistent. If it breaks loose on a wet root on a corner it immediately hooks up again. The downside is I have had 2 of these tires where the knobs started coming off the casing before I would have replaced the tire due to wear. This has never happened with a Maxxis tire. Frustrated, I put on a Maxxis Aggressor which didn’t have the cornering predictability I wanted and then a DHRii which felt like a boat anchor in the wet. So I went back to the Eliminator Grid trail T7 with the knowledge it will only last half the life of a Maxxis.
