All tyres are a compromise. The mud Pro is a mud specific tyre, and at this it excels. However it's excellent mud performance is at the expense of it's performance on other terrains.
On MUD: There are 2 thoughts for riding through mud
1) fat tyres run at low pressures to float over the surface.
2) thin tyres at high pressures to cut through the muck and find grip below.
These are firmly in option 2. And in mud they are outstanding. I have personally ridden through 3/4 mile of constant mud, some if it up to 18 inches deep, and while my mates were left carrying their bikes, I just ploughed on through.
Seems to work best at around 50 psi. The narrow profile and tall knobs really do cut through the surface, and where other tyres will just spin these will find grip. As long as you have the power to keep the rear wheel turning this tyre will push you through the muck. You're helped out by the narrow profile which prevents the mud getting as much of a hold on the tyre. Mud shedding is excellent. This is the only tyre that I have found will take you through sticky mud without grinding to a standstill.
THE BAD:
While this tyre excels in mud, everywhere else its skinny profile and tall knobs can be a serious handicap.
it makes hard pack, gravel and tarmac hard work, and I personally don't push those tall knobs too hard in corners either.
Where I live we get lots of chalk, and slimy mud on top of chalk is lethal with any tyre, but the mud pros push the definition of lethal to a whole new dimension. It's better over wet rocks, but not by much. It can also spin up on wet roots, meaning that it's usually best to manual/wheelie the front over, and take any slide on the rear.
OVERALL:
In mud it is the absolute bees knees. But this mud performance is at the expense of it's performance on other types of terrain. The 5 star rating applies only to it's intended use. I couldn't give it more than 2 stars anywhere else
