Puncture resistant. I don't know if I was lucky or this is very puncture resistant, but I never got a puncture no matter how hard I rode, which is partly good luck at the time, but these tyres won puncture by trail use. even if I rode on broken glass.( of course I if you ride on a big and sharp thing you will puncture every tyre) Takes rock gardens pretty well, no cuts yet. But I don't have any many sharp rocks where I lived at the time of the review.
Fast rolling
Due to the lack of cornering grip I could no continue to use these tyres.
It's quite heavy at 1010 grams for one tyre its quite heavy, but the higher weight is unavoidable with thicker & stronger tyres. but not unusual for a enduro tyre.
But in 2021 I tried Michhelin WInd Enduro which were even better cornering, and had more stability than any of these, but they are heavier, but peerform much better.
After few weeks of use ofthe XR3 Expert tyres, so I need new tyres so Ipurchased all the se4 tyres in stock. I did not abuse the tyres, Irode singletrack & some stairs. I do not mind the weight of these tyres because of the durability.
After using the 2015 Bontrager SE4 Team Issue 29×2.3 for the 2015 season, I tried Maxxis High roller 2 3C Maxx Terra EXO TR 2.3 the 2016 season, which are much better tyres in my opinion, so I needed to update you on this.
I can't recommend these tyres because I have tried Maxxis High Roller 2 3C 's
I have not had any issues when riding on the pavement or asphalt road.
Not so good on common variable trail conditions. I recommend getting a tyre with better cornering grip, and stickier rubber for better grip, I now use Maxxis HighRoller 2's and I have never looked back.
Maxxis HighRoller 2 is as durable and got a much softer compound.
For me the Maxxis HighRoller 2, offer a better package, even it does not turn as fast, but for me it's better compromise, the result is an excellent overall experience.
I use Maxxis Minion 2.3 on my trek 6300 26er bikes, and they roll fast in corners, but they don't slide/wash out on you when riding fast in corners, so for more technical trails I recommend Maxxis High Roller 2 2.3 or 2.4
for xc gravel, or not too rooty trails, for xc, gravel and asphalt Minion's are better.
But in 2021 I tried Michhelin WInd Enduro which were even better cornering, and had more stability than any of these, but they are heavier, but peerform much better.
