I know these are not a slickrock tire, but to their side knobs fold over and let go under hard
lateral G's on hardpack?

My front maxxis MOFO has this lovely trait, so I'm wary of buying another big knob tire. It's not
that they slide, they actually fold and tear. I've had 3 good wipeouts on off-camber slickrock and I
have 3 sections of tire with a 4" pattern of torn side knobs. The damn thing is making my gun shy.

Thanks, Bruce

I think you might want to look for a new saddle if your gun is getting shy... as for the tires, I
couldn't tell ya ;)

Damn, that's a freudian typo.
