Emily Keddie's review
New version of GS:TAM, the 2 has a sleek low profile that I'm mildly obsessed with when it comes to quick, confident movement on less technical trails or softer surfaces like dirt and sand. The lugs give a high amount of security when moving quicky on trail, especially on fast ascents and descents. Fits like a glove, without feeling tight, in all the right places.
