I bought a Sedona MX887IT for my bike. It's cheap and the reviews are hit or miss. I figured since I'm low on money and I will only get to ride until I ship out to Basic (no riding for 4-6 months, possibly more), you know..why not! It cant get too tore up in a couple rides. It had a reputation on being hard to put on, they weren't lying. It took me hours to get it on. The sidewall is so stiff and thick, it was a supreme pain in the ass. NO DOUBT, hardest tire to put on! I will put money on it! There was one point where it was impossible to fit a tire spoon in the very last section that needed to be spooned over, so I had to do the unforgivable...I used a long chisel. I'd had enough anyways. Figured even if I did pop the tube, that side wall is thick enough to not make much a difference. I will have a ride review Sunday. I'm going to hit my back trails with it tomorrow too.
