Strengths and weaknesses
An aggressive, tall-block rally tyre (formerly the E-09 / Dakar).
Where it's good
- Owners praise its massive paddle-like centre lugs for driving through deep gravel, mud, and sand with relentless traction.
Where it falls short
- Riders mention it can feel squirmy under heavy road braking and requires careful throttle on wet, cold asphalt.

Holloway ratings
Seven separate scores, not one blended number, since a tyre that's brilliant in mud can be miserable on a wet motorway link, and vice versa.

Remember: a tyre's real character also depends on how worn it is, what pressure it's run at, and the bike it's fitted to. A great green-lane tyre on the wrong pressure, or worn past its best, can behave nothing like its rating suggests. Check the lane's own hazards and current conditions before you go, not just a tyre score.
