I've run them, the last two or three sets. I like 'em. They are good for fast pavement riding (I'm sure someone will disagree) and when they do start to slide they are quite predictable. I'm just about ready to replace the rear one, I put it on last summer and rode it up to Idaho on highway, then around the state's wilderness areas on dirt, then home, and I've been riding it to work and taking it out in the boonies on weekends. It's got an even five thou on it and is getting a little bald in the middle. They are pretty nice in the dirt too, for a 50 50 tire. I give 'em the seal of approval, and I'm going to keep running them. I am not a lover of Gripsters. Too pricey, not enough sticky, and no knobs.

They look like a very capable 50/50 tire and are "s" speed rated. The price, about US$70.00 delivered, is attractive for a rear tire. I know that there may be some resistance to the name which once meant a cheap tire. But I have had Cheng Shin tires in the past with no problems and have never heard of any disasters involving the brand. Whaddaya think? Thanks.
