If Goldilocks had broken into the Three Mountain Biker Bears' house and decided to swipe their bikes instead of eating all their food and passing out on the bed, this is what she would have said...if each of the bears' bikes had IRC Trailbear tires:
XC Bear: "These tires are too fat!" DH Bear: "These tires are too thin!" Average Trail Rider Bear: "These tires are just right -- I think I'll steal this one!"
And the thieving little bitch would be right on the money. I figure I have about 100 pounds on your average Goldilocks, and the Trailbear tires didn't feel spindly or squirrelly when the going got rough -- not DH rough, but the type of rough that demands more than a lightweight XC tire usually can deliver.

The Trailbears have medium-height tread knobs that grip on climbs without feeling sluggish, and the profile of the tire has just the right amount of roundness to make it hold a solid line through sharp corners. The directional tread pattern is similar to the arrow style of the old IRC Missile and throws the mud fairly well, but performs best in loose, loamy dirt.
