Is that a dropper post I see on your ride? If so, how often do you use it?
I really like the Recon's. They are wider and 1.5 lbs lighter then the tires I took off. I really noticed the weight loss in the front. Trails are 50% bad / 50% horrible right now. Mud, snow, standing water, ice, slush. The big Recon's did really good staying on top of most of it. The dropper is great too and I do use it but not constantly. On trails I mostly like the seat slightly lower than normal. So the dropper comes in real handy when i'm on long flats or camp roads and I want the seat up higher.
