It's got me bummed because I can't find the 3C MT model in any of my distributors. Maybe more will pick them up down the road. Seems like an awesome mid-heavyweight trail tire.
I really like the existing Forekaster, works great for me around here. Bummed but not surprised to see only 29" options this time around. I hope they either keep the existing one alive in 27.5", or introduce the new one.
As more mid-travel and downcountry bikes allow mullet setups, I'm sure companies will start bringing back more 27.5" options. I got a mullet link for my Stumpy that I might try out this fall.
It's kinda small in person. I have a few pieces of foam from Sram part boxes with black gorilla tape over it at the seams. Pretty easy to keep clean, and don't ever have to worry about what's getting dropped on it.
