Such a proponent of this company! Many hours of forum scrolling and youtube perusing led me to the conclusion that you get what you pay for when it comes to studding dirt bike tires. I made the investment in these studs and am so happy I did! My first ride was on my local singletrack in 6-8" of fresh snow then over top of some iced in tracks of riders the week prior. I'm truly blown away by how fun and easy to ride it is! Braking, accelerating, leaning the bike, it's all there! The customer service experience with Brian was top notch. If you're on the fence about investing in these, I hope this review nudges you into purchasing. Thanks Grip Studs, winter is going to be a whole new season!
