I nearly bit the bullet today. Rolling at 15 mph on a basic wet dirt road. Front washed out so quick on me I had no time to react. Only my knee jerk reaction of the foot getting to the ground with the bikes weight pounding behind it kept me from dropping it. It was like hitting black ice on the highway. Reaffirms my thoughts that these type of 80/20 tires are just exactly that. 60/40 rating is the way to go. As soon as you throw any wetness or gravel at these tires they stop doing their job. I pulled over right after and the pattern on both were completely caked over. In actual mud.. it’s lights out.
