GEAX AKA 650B

I was on pricepoint and this tire was highly rated. However 1 review really threw me in a loop.

"5 out of 5 stars

Lightweight and grippy on sandy and rocky hardpack. I have it on the front 650b 60psi. Reminiscent of a park jumping tire like a Hutch Cobra but better taller knobs."​

Does this sound right to you? I like to read reviews of products, but sometimes I get these odd ball review where I call into question the validity of the reviewer. 60psi is a lot of pressure for a tire. In fact I think a lot of tire manufacturers say bead with 60psi then reduce to the pressure range on the tire. I've only had a handful of experience with tires and they were all with 26ers. What do you guys think?

 

I used the have an AKA as a real tire on my 29" FS bike.
I would never use it @ 60 PSi (25-30).
I didn't try it as front tire, but as a rear is was fast and loose (not grate attribute for a front tire). The side knobs are too small.
Traction deteriorated after about 500 miles (I'm over 210 lbs.).

 

Good to know. I think I'll keep looking.
