Fairly light. I wish they made the 2.1 in an EXO version. Can also be found for not too much cash if you shop around.

A nice combo I've run a couple times on rides when I've wanted more beef is the 2.25 ADvantage in back, and Minion DHF 2.5 3C/EXO up front. Way slower rolling combo, but steamrolls over things and has awesome traction.
Wold you say they roll faster than Maxxis Ingitors? I am running Ignitor 2.35 Front and Crossmark 2.1 rear at the moment and am looking for something with that's a bit faster than the Ignitor for XC racing on hardpack to medium loose terrain.
