Specialized Captain Control 2Bliss
« on: June 25, 2010, 10:41:47 AM »
I'm running this tire on the back of my Trek Fuel EX8. Was recommended by my LBS as a sturdier alternative to the SB8.

I've put about 400-500 miles on it so far and overall it's good. Better when it's dry and was wandering a little bit when wet but as long as the trail was dry or even tacky it does a good job.

are the treads on that as tall as the Nevegals?  I always thought they were a really small and tight tread pattern but looking at the pictures around the web it looks like it's a bit more aggressive.

this is it correct?

The threads are faily aggressive but not as tall as the Nevegals'. The height in the middle tread is lower I guess to decrease rolling resistance. The outside knobs are a lot smaller then the Nevs.
