I have just ordered and now they have arrived some Panaracer Razer MX, It was not until I unwrapped them and had a look that I began to think they might not be to good In the mud, so I took another look on CRC. It does say on the description ( I must of mist this bit) for hard pack only.

Does anyone use these and now If they will handle any mud?

    well for a semi slick tyre they will give some grip.

    more of a dry to damp tyre.

    Keep them for the summer.

  • They really don't handle mud at all....

    I love them in the dry/slightly damp, but as soon as it's muddy then off they come. I'd keep them for any dry spells, you'll be amazed at the turn of speed they add.

    Well you all seem to be saying what I am thinking, especially as I look at them. Best file them to the back of the shed for the summer then.

    there is a review on the home page which places them in the same area as the Schwalbe Racing Ralph.
