I got new Tioga FASTR X Tires (Ask Me Anything)
#1
Tioga offers their flagship race tire for 27.5 in just one style. I would have loved to try the React or BLK LBL versions.

What I can supplement from these is that they are incredible!

Speed factor Is absolutely amazing for semi-slick tires. The acceleration is crazy aggressive. And the grip pods really bring out everything in my 50mm stem. The handling is off the charts! For the record, I rode Continental Contact Speed 27.5x2.0 before this. Great tires. Fast. Comfortable. But bad handling and wet grip. I also rode the Pirelli Angel GT Urban 27.5x2.25 which I think are amazing. I had to move from those because they are a bit too wide for what I do, since I don't have an eBike. These Tioga are 1.5 tires and top out at about 80psi. I feel like I'm getting about everything I need out of these, even if they are a bit more energy to push above my road tires.
