Not a chance. For me at least, traction is 90% about confidence in your tyres.
Bought cheap mountain king once. Gave them all away.
Thanks - I might be in a minority but I rate your opinions... ;)

I'll keep my $22 for now.

Not even. The GP4000s are widow makers. They are very slippery in the wet.

Conti GP 4 seasons are supposed to have grippier rubber, running them on my roadie ( Michelin all season too, apparently)

Not the craziest of bargains but I just saw Straitline has the Silent Guide parts on sale on their website. From what I can tell they have been discontinued, but I really wanted one because my LG1 guide is so bloody loud (hard plastic I guess). About $35 shipped if you can BYO a bashguard (I'm hoping to find one on here)...

Had a similar experience a short while ago - ordered on a Thursday, landed in the country on the Monday and was delivered the following Monday from memory!
