Not very stable on turns, Horrible in the mud, slip-sliding all the way. While on packed gravel picks up all kinds of derbies.
Tires for riding with son on back seat
by Kyle of Altoona , WI on July 21, 2016
Ownership: a few months
Tech Knowledge: somewhat high
Pros
Great volume for road tire
Smooth ride
reflective strip is nice
Cons
Already some separation and cracks in the sidewall.
Other Thoughts
I ride my son around on a bike rack mounted seat. Total of 286 lbs lugging around town. Its really nice to have some extra volume in the tire to even out the road. At ~55lbs its solid enough to keep good speed. Put on about 200 miles so far and there is some cracking or separation in the sidewalls though. May have had too much pressure for a while or due to being on a mountain bike rim.

Ownership: more than a year
Tech Knowledge: average
Pros
Have lasted well, good puncture resistance, roll well on pavement and hard packed dirt
Cons
Little heavy, poor traction on loose surfaces.
