Title: Good rear tire
Review: I ride a Santa Cruz Blur LTc, and these tires came stock with the XTRAM kit. I swapped out the front for a Maxxis Ardent 2.4 and am very happy with this combo on SoCal trails conditions: mostly dry, rocky, sometimes hard pack, sometimes loose.While the High Roller has more rolling resistance than the Ardent, it excels in climbing traction, hence the rear designation. I am on my 4th High Roller in a year (I ride a lot!)and just received the UST version to see if it works better with my ghetto Stan's conversion. Although the standard version works fine on my WTB non-UST rims, once the tire gets old it doesn't hold the bead as well, and a good rolling 'burp' will ruin the casing. The price on Amazon was comparable to other on-line retailers plus free quick shipping makes the deal.Now just go ride!!
