Inadvisable as a purchase!
So stiff that only after 3 hours of toiling with tyre levers did I get the outer tyre on the rim. This did result in 2 (new) inner tubes being punctured so still no use, frustrating!

Good tape, but don't get stroke out
High stroke and side stroke due to wrong inner tube?

Definitely do not buy
After blood sweat and tears got my tyres on my rim, then during my 2nd gravel ride had 3 flat tyres. In the 2000km I rode 7 flat tyres. Not at all satisfied for tyres of 50 euros each.

Great tyre when you get them fitted.
On the site I read already difficult to assemble, however, this may become "impossible to assemble". Blood(bling), sweat and just short of tears

After a lot of toil now satisfied
Tire performs well in all areas, irritating though that you almost don't get it placed.

Good band
Does what it says. Runs well on both asphalt and dirt.

Maybe it does not fit with our rims
Much too narrow

Fast and beautiful tyre which could be a little more wear-resistant
Fine (fast) tyre with a good performance on both unpaved and asphalt surfaces. On coarser surfaces with, for example, larger rocks or roots, the tyre lacks grip, mainly due to its width. After 200km (on 80% unpaved roads) the tyre is already showing considerable wear

Keienerlei Schutz vor Steinedurchschlag
Sorry der Reifen ist totaler Mist, seit Bestellung Mitte Juli hatte ich ca. 6 Platten für Schotter komplett ungeeignet.

Imposition hell, driving top.
First time imposition not doable without tools (bbb tyre pliers and lezyne tyre lever). Watch your rim stickers as they may not come out unscathed. Tyres once on, good to go. Balls well, get through loose sand nicely. Can even ride with the 36 mm version under the minimum pressure of 2.2 bar without bumping into the rim flange on tree roots and in potholes.

Great band with limitation
Have this tyre in 36 width on my cyclocrosser. Especially in the woods with lots of protruding roots, it gives you just a bit more cushioning than the traditional 32-width tyre. The tyre runs great and is incredibly supple. The tyre can also be used for quite a long time. Even in mud. Obviously a bit sliding but doable. I think the biggest disadvantage is the stud structure on the side. If you go sharply through a corner, these studs suddenly 'bite' and your handlebars get crosswise, as it were. This has caused me to fall a couple of times. In short, great tyre but if you ride it at the limit it clearly has limitations.
