My friends son has a pair. 29 x 2.6. DH rear and something else front. He dented his back rim badly at EWS Whistler and he had a lot of air in it. He said they are slow for climbing and heavy. Tread pattern looked OK. He got them somewhere in the lower mainland I think. 

I’m running the Michelin Wild Enduro and like them a lot. Considering the cost was $66 each versus $120 or so for a Minnion they are outstanding.

Do you have a Wild Enduro 29er tyre?

I'm a little interested in the Good Year Newton but they appear to be even heavier and more expensive than the Wild Rock'r2 I'm currently running up front.

No. 27.5 by 2.4. I don’t think Michelin make that model in 29 yet.

Heard the Wild Enduro 29er drops in September. 

Too bad anti-29er Sam Hill is sponsored by Michelin now 

🤣
