* The updated Forekaster is aimed squarely at modern short travel (100mm-130mm) trail bikes – aka the downcountry segment* Intended to be a Goldilocks tire, the new Forekaster rolls fast but also provides solid cornering and braking traction in a broad range of trail conditions.* Densely packed tread pattern to increase rolling efficiency, taller side knobs to improve cornering grip, and raised ridges on the casing to promote mud clearing* When an Aspen isnt enough tire but a Minion is too much, choose the Forekaster
