According to the product specialist

Pros
The aggressive tread makes this tyre loved by many Trail and Enduro riders.
Suitable for technical descents over tree roots and rocks.
The Exo Protection technology protects the sidewalls well against sharp stones.
The hard dual compound ensures a sturdy and reliable tyre in technical descents.
Tubeless Ready technology makes the tyres easy to make tubeless with 90ml of latex sealant per tyre.
The medium-tall knobs make this tyre ideal for winding tracks, grass and hard sandy paths.
Thanks to the medium-high knobs profile ensures low resistance on straight stretches.
The Exo Protection in the sidewalls provides protection against cuts from sharp objects.
The Vittoria Mezcal G2 TLR is a fast mountain bike tyre that performs best in dry conditions and slightly harder surfaces.
The alternating blocks on the edges provide extra grip in corners, when braking and while climbing.
The Mezcal G2's Graphene 2.0 compound excels in grip and lower rolling resistance.
4C Graphene 2.0 is made up of 4 layers for the necessary puncture protection and durability.
Tubeless Ready technology makes the tyres easy to make tubeless with 90ml of latex sealant per tyre.
Cons
The hard dual compound makes this tyre less suitable for wet/muddy conditions.
Tubeless sealant should generally be topped up every 3-6 months.
The knobs are too short for muddy conditions.
The Mezcal G2 outer tyre loses its traction in muddy conditions.
Tubeless sealant should generally be topped up every 3-6 months.
