Not us, our lips are sealed. but in return for our silence we want a road test report on what they ride like compared to normal tyres.
i can't get my head around the concept of fitting £190 worth of tyres to an MTB I paid no more than £20 for in the first place. It just doesn't seem right.

I'm keeping stum.
I put £300-worth of parts on a £25 frame, so it's not for me to say...

Went out on the maiden voyage today. It's not bad! the Microshift shifters were pretty stiff to start, but loosened up after a bit. I am not sure if I would pick them again over the Shimano. The crank is very smooth compared to the old one, but the gearing (same as) is quite short as the tallest gear is a 42/14. The saddle is awful, it's something I picked up on ebay for a kid's bike a few years back, but this is an out of the saddle bike, so no big hurry.
