I did have a Panaracer Comet Hardpack on the front & back then discovered a Bonti summer tyre which has been excellent over the drier months but with winter now on the way I fancied a more grippy tyre than the Panaracer. I seen a photo on the internet with a pair of these Fast Trak's fitted to a Mason and also seen them in Bike Treks Ings but were £30 each. I did a quick google and Sigma Sport had stock and were less than twenty quid inc p&p so I ordered one. It landed within a couple of days and I fitted a couple of weeks ago. I tried to run it tubeless but could not get it to inflate and snap the beads even with a compressor so stuck an inner tube in. I have only used it a couple of times, both in muddy'ish conditions and could not fault it. The tread is more aggressive than the Panaracer and the knobs are more spaced out so does not clog so easily. Its bang on the manufacturers weight as well. Sigma now (at the time of writing this) have them for sale at £15 each - total bargain and would defo recommend them.
RRP £30 and I paid £19.80 inc p&p from Sigma Sport (now £15 in the sale)
