i like this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
These tyres are quality, a great all round tyre. They seem to work well on all types of terrain. If your looking for a tyre that is universal and reliable then this is the one. No doubt there are better tyres for specific conditions but as an all rounder I've not found better to date.
Excelent grip and higher control, they improved my times climbing as well as coming down. on a full suspension bike the turns that I was taking max at 20 mph now I can pass them in control at 24 - 27 mph, on narrow single tracks after raining they stay kool at high speed. Switch from Kelly Death Grip 2.35 to Ignitor and I noticed it better vs Hutchinso way better and easier to get than Kelly tires.
quality tire, really grippy in all conditions and looks sick too. Only downside is i got a small tear in the sidewall but this was easily fixed by a piece of duct tape.
Excellent all around tire that rolls fast and lasts. I would use for racing, xc, am. Came stock on 08' Kona Dawgs.

The Ignitor tread pattern was designed for the most discerning professional racers and already has laid claim to multiple World Cup victories. The well-spaced tread pattern fills in nicely to provide low rolling resistance in the straights, while the ramped pentagonal knobs provide excellent traction in the corners and in medium soil.
Designed to roll fast and hook up in medium to loose conditions
Long lasting 70a or race-proven eXCeption Series 62a compounds
Excellent multi-condition performance
