Review your Maxxis MA P5 Mecotra >

In my opinion, this tyre punches well above its weight. For a budget category, it offers excellent value for money. No.1 highlight: comfort. It has plushy drive feel, soft but surefooted, and it is surely the quietest tyre I've ever had (even beating premium brands performance models). They're really super quiet. I put them through proper test in Asian mountains (after 800km ridden), which included descending long steep slopes on narrow road with tight corners in the middle of the storm. The grip was totally satisfying with zero sketchy moments, inspiring confidence. I had to remind myself again and again what the price of these is. The only setback is that the rolling resistance seems to be higher (as common with other Maxxis's, e.g. bicycle tyres). But again, it's a budget tyre, and I'm really impressed overall.
