The inner tread is relatively short, though still a good bit taller than the tread on a road bike. That said, the tread is only moderately aggressive, and it looks like less of an all-terrain all-condition tire than many of its competitors. I think I found a better combo here for the mid travel trail bike and longer rides. Ardent 2.4 in front. Along with a spike-like design, most of the knobs or spikes also have generous siping, making sure those tall knobs conform to anything they can grab onto when the dirt gets slippery. This new one, Im not quite sure what its for. If it wasn't wider than the Forekaster, I'd run it out back. I know the 2.25 on my 29er and the 2.4 WT on my 27.5 measured out the same, and the 27.5 was on a rim that was 7mm wider internally.

Currently running a Forekaster up front on a bike and its been great. The Forekasters don't have as aggressive side knobs as the ardents plus the forecaster will roll faster. Disagree, I think the forekaster corners way better then the ardent. Aspen in the rear and slightly more tread up front like an Ikon or Ardent Race for dry, Aspen in the rear with a Forekaster up front for loose or wet conditions, Front and rear for fast, predictable handling with matched sizes, Front 2.35 and rear 2.2 for volume to speed, Rear with Ardent or Forekaster for loose or wet conditions. Ride the fastest tires you feel confident on. The tread has been beefed up a little, and Maxxis now says it's designed for modern short travel trail bikes. FEATURES OF THE NEW MAXXIS FOREKASTER INCLUDE: The new Forekaster slots into the Maxxis mountain line between our XC options that prioritize rolling speed (Aspen, Rekon Race, Ikon, Rekon) and our gravity-focused treads (Dissector, Minion DHF, Minion DHR, Assegai) which emphasize cornering and braking traction. She would never say no because of the implication. Ardent tires are also relatively puncture-resistant, and unlikely to give way even on cheese grater rocks and other difficult terrain. The XR4s actually surprised us with their durability and resilience considering the irreverent treatment we gave them. I went down on it yesterday, so it's time for something more sticky up front.
