Review on 🚲 Continental Mountain Bike ProTection Tire - Tubeless, Folding Handmade MTB Performance Tire with Black Chili (26-inch, 27.5-inch, 29-inch) by Joey Richardson

I didn't give these tires 5 stars just because they are very difficult to fit. I broke 2 plastic tire levers. I struggled for a while and had to use metal tire levers. I ordered a tire lever for next time. I upgraded from WTB Nano 2.1 to Trail King 2.4 front and rear. What a big difference, these bindings have really good grip, especially in corners, even aggressive corners with loose dirt or gravel. Also good in rocky terrain. I was also surprised at how well these tires clear mud. There are 2 versions of the Trail King, one handcrafted in Germany and the other in China, which cost about $10 less than a German-made tire. I've tried both and the performance is the same. Long-term durability might be different. I have driven about 350 miles on these tires and they are still my favorite tires. No flat tires yet, despite driving through dry vegetation, rocks, exposed tree roots, dry creek beds and the rugged terrain of central Texas. The Trail King's grip is excellent and rivals Maxxis Minion tires.
