just had one so thought I would try something different, seemed very good on mud and trails, bit bobbly down road to start but never any real grip problems.
I've used a comp IV for years but after trying Rich's Comp VI at Bratton I've decided to go for one of those next. Seemed to have better grip in the damp woods. Meant to be slightly better for everything apart from perhaps grip on rock.
