coped well on all our rides on different terrains / all weathers.
I have only used the folding bead Stick E (2.1" & & 2.35") and the DTC in 2.1" flavour.
The 2.35 Stick E were really quite draggy running both front & rear, swapped to 2.1 F & R & it was a bit less draggy, stuck the 2.1 DTC out back & it's much better now, loads of grip up front & not too much drag.
But saying that the Stick E are a soft compound so they will drag a bit, great up front, but not so good out back, hence the DTC/Stick E combo
id keep them on until the weather gets a bit better then just swap the rear one out for a small block eight.

In Wales with rocky rooty tracks the norm, a set 2.35 of these are great, stick e on the front and DTC on the back as said before, you pay a little in climbs but hte rewards is great grip on the downs
The end.
2.1 Stick-E front, DTC rear.
Depends on what you ride, a larger tyre body will give more grip, but more rolling resistance so it depends on your focus, Roung here al my trails are very rocky and rooty so there wider tyre works.
If you ride smoother trails or bridal paths so on i would go slimmer 2.1.
Only ever bought the tyres separately myself though.

So far I have found it difficult to find a tyre that works well in both environments. So I have switched to Maxxis Larsen TT's in 2.35 for trail centre work and Panaracer XC Pro 2.1 for wet/muddy rides.
Oh yes
But, bigger is better, right, so I got a 2.35 stick-e front and oh my word, the drag... The best comparison I have is Glentress red climb, on the 2.1s I get to the top fairly fresh and usually I'm waiting for other people to rest up at the benches etc. On the 2.35 I was dead
Still, I'll fire it back on for fort william next time and for uplift holidays and the like. Til then I'll stick with my 2.1 Nevegals, they're ace. Or an Excavator 2.1 on the rear.
