it worker great. worried about the rear tire in some traction conditions, but turned it around and this was great for those xc rides that have road and freeride to.
Amazing Grip Never Slid out bit on the heavy side but amazing tyre best on mud/sand would not get dor DJ/Street better for Downhill/Freeride

The Graffiti UK (Ultimate Kombat) is WTB’s premier dirt jumping tire. The aggressive UK uses large, flat blocks of tread for superb traction on the hardpack surfaces of dirt jumps and terrain parks. Although this tire shines in the dirt, the knobs are firm enough to rail urban environments as well.
