they all have the gothic m as the tread pattern, repeating, in diffrent directions in the middle, and the sides, are the m also.
I think more show than anything else.

agreed...

and they are made by Nokian...

so right away that means "be wary on wet wood/rocks"...

NO sale....

I would love to see IFO's reaction to a black Norco with a fox fork, nokian tires, syncro pedals, and an XT drivetrain :)

didn't the new soft compound Nokians get a pretty good review on NSMB for wet shore conditions?

based on other NSMB reviews (.243 tire, nevegal, etc), I don't have any problems believing them.

and even though it's a pretty cheesy tread pattern, you never know, it might actually work well, esp. if it is a soft-compound tire. :P
