I ran the 29" LG1 EN TRSr and TRS+ on my Range. Mounted on WeAreOne Agent 30mm inner rims and they are a true 2.35" so more like a Maxxis 2.5". For reference I run Continental Der Baron Projekt 2.4" (as wide as a Maxxis DHF 2.5") and Continental Trail King II 2.4" (1.8mm wider actually despite being a 'less aggressive' tyre with a smaller knob pattern all round).  I found that the race compound really gripped, I would compare it to a 3C Maxx Grip or Continental Black Chilli (not quite as grippy but only a smidge less).  It was definitely a slower roller than both and it wore a bit faster than the Conti but lasted way better than a 3C Maxxgrip. I did not like the + compound but I don't like a difference in grip between my front and rear tyre and don't believe in saving $ by speccing a longer lasting compound that might just help me face plant the ground more easily. False savings as far as I am concerned. Horse for courses of course but good value for money and I doubt a well informed buyer would be disappointed.
