    So I picked up this rear tire after talking to the guys at TuBliss. Its a crazy design rear tire!
    I've done a couple Enduros on it now totaling about 150miles and a few hours of practice time as well.
    So this was the only tire from this manufacturer that was recommend, it has trials tire rubber knobs with a super stiff sidewall.
    I ran this at 4-5psi, it did not feel flat or weird at all. It goes over rocks and roots really really well! It worked on everything I threw at it including the occasional mud hole. I don't think it would be the best choice for a flat out mud race.
    This tire also work very good at hill climbs! If it was week in one area I'd say it could use larger side knobs to help when laying the bike in corners.
    Overall for the $70 it cost I don't think you could go wrong using this as a long lasting trail tire, for racing I'd say you could find more expensive tires that would fit the spacific terrain your racing that would be better. For an all around good rock/trail tire this is a pretty sweet tire for the money!
    Just my review

    I've seen some reviews on these but mostly from people that sell them. Thanks for the review. May give that a try and the GT216 fat front tire.

    I have sampled 2 of those and did not like them at all for the NW. Just my 2 cents.

    This rear tire just kinda did everything decent I thought. Last year I ran IRC m5b rear and really liked that and I thought the sedona held its own on hill climbs with the m5b. The m5b being better though.

    Next up I'd like to try the Dunlop at81 and mx32! Have heard good stuff about these but didn't sound like they had great longevity??

    I run "ride on" for atv's in all my tubliss set ups and use it on all the beads during assembly and haven't had a flat yet. Did 18 races this year.
    I ran the pirelli xcms front and rear a couple races, the front I like but the rears I don't know. The rear seems to not bite real well for me on off camber stuff and the braking I didn't think was very great?? It might be all in my head but I feel like braking is better on tires with a "v" patter like the m5b for example, or a kenda millville 2.

    I'm all over the map... havent found a tire I'm totally in love with since the 756.....

    AT81 rear was pretty good but I didnt like the front.... I'm really strange though... I am very front end reliant and want a positive feel from the front and I let the rear just go where ever... lol

    What front do you tend to like? I've heard the MX 32 is a good front and at81 rear but again not the longest lasting..

    Not strange, me too. I love the Goldentyre GT216 front and run whatever out back.

    I've had very good luck with both in East coast dirt.... Clay, mud and fairly rocky (not cali or nevada rocks).... 2 rear AT81 in a season and 2 fronts.... that about 5 Enduros (with road sections) and 15 XC races along with a random ride here and there....

    I kinda like the look of that 216 front....

    I have well over 80 miles in the last two rides on mostly rocky, rooty, crap and the 216 front is awesome. I feel the same as all the other riders using it. It hasn't lost its edges at all yet and you can still see where the nubs were. Really surprised a tire with this kind of grip holds up so well. Still really like the MotoZ terrapactor rear even though it doesn't hold up as well in the rocks. My last one was pretty chunked out after 400 miles. Lots of nasty rock garden rides though. JMO

    Well I should step in here and mention that I just ran a Dual sport event this past Sunday, 95 miles of off road with the longest road section at 4.8 miles and the GT216 was awesome. I should also mention that it rained for 6 straight days prior to this event and the trails were more Enduro single track than dual sport. The club is an Enduro club that put it on and the regular trail sections would be challenging in dry conditions but they decided to throw in some orange arrow super hero sections and with the mud it was interesting to say the least. I was very happy with my GT216 front, which had 1400 miles on it prior to this ride. This was by far the most fun I've had on a dirt bike in a long while. Here is a picture of one special mud hole I came across. There were many more than this... I love the GT 216 front. I ran it at 10 psi with a tube for this mud fest as a reference. I had a new 130/80 Michelin competition rear which also was awesome.

    if that was true I'd have them on ever DB I won. I only have one. Best front tire going IMHO. Does everything. Lasts forever. Would like to try their rear tires now.
