Great tubeless Tires for All Around MTB riding &41

I bought a bike with these on it last year and rode them all year. Liked them so much bought another pair and put them on over the winter. I run them tubeless on Bontager Rhythm's...and they are a dream ride ) Lite, fast and grip when you need it on those 20% climbs here in Colorado...I like a little bit of center bead on tires, makes you faster on the fire roads between single track sections...and on hard packed single track as well. With the lack of water last year, i was riding hard trails predominately....these tires rock! I run 2.2 on front and back. We climbs some serious hills here, every day for breakfast...these climb well and descend awesome. A good quality tire with good bead for running tubless.

Thank you for your feedback.

Overall great tire for the Front Range, Colorado trails

I've been using the TNT version of this tire in the 2.2 width for a back tire after several staff at LBS recommended using a tire with less aggressive knobs in the rear. I cautiously took them up on this suggestion and have found it to be valid with the right tire. As they have grown in popularity, the price has increased, however, so they lose a star for value. I'm not sure how they would work for a front tire.

Thank you for your feedback.

good fast tire with good tracktion

I am using this tire on singletrack trails. I think they got this right if you are looking for a fast tire without sacrificing traction. Although I haven't used it in real muddy conditions and probably won't, I have used it on trails after recent rain with no loss of traction.

Thank you for your feedback.

the weight...

Just threw the 29x2.2 (56-622) folding version of the Saguaro on the postal scale, came in at 752 grams.

Looks like a nice tire unfortunately haven't had a chance to even mount it yet, judging by its size it's going to be a very voluminous tire.

Thank you for your feedback.

This tire is great for dry loose conditions

I have used the Geax Saguaro tire for the last 6 months. I like the fact that they last a bit longer than other tires I have used, and the traction you get climbing and cornering is awesome. I have never got a flat tire yet with this tire and I ride areas with lots of sharp rocks, and also areas with a lot of star thistles. I did see some puncture holes from star thistle a few times but, the STANS sealed it right up. GREAT TIRE

Thank you for your feedback.

Traction and Speed

I bought this tire a few weeks ago to replace the rear tire I had worn out and have been really happy with it. I'm riding in the NW where it's been really dry so the trails are fast and loose. This tire has hooked up where I need it climbing and cornering and lets me rip the single track with out added weight. I've used a lot of tires and if you are looking for a fast 2.1 with good traction this one is it. When it gets wet I'll edit this review to add those comments.

Thank you for your feedback.

Good traction, lots of problems

This year I rode two sections of the Great Divide Mtn. Bike route with these tires. Up in Canada, the sidewall blew out in less than 200 miles and I received a new one after returning it to BTD thanks. In New Mexico, the tires handled the soft conditions well, but I had 4 flats. Maybe the rubber is too sticky soft and it picked up prickers...who knows? My riding companion is 120 lbs. heavier and was using Specialized tires...no flats. I would not recommend these tires for touring. Maybe ok for packed single track, but given the price, there are much better tires out there to choose from. I don't plan to purchase them again.

Thank you for your feedback.

Easy to mount, roll fast, feel lightweight

Great set of tires at a decent price. I haven't gotten much riding in on them, but what I have done has been great!! Totally recommend them based on SoCal conditions.

Good tire for the price.

I'm currently using the 29 x 2.2 tire on a XC full suspension bike.

This tire works fairly well in moist to dry conditions. The price is good and it seems to be holding up well so far.

This tire is directional and has arrows on the side for either speed or traction. I have the front tire set up for traction and the back for speed and it seems to be good so far. I'm going to change the back tire to traction and see how that works, for climbing on dry hills.

Overall, I think this tire is working out good. I feel it works better than the Maxis crossmark, in the above mentioned conditions.

Thank you for your feedback.
