It's a nice tire. It's been passed over by other tires in my book ... I like the Tioga BMX tires better and they're often less expensive too. I remember some folks in the Pacific Northwest complaining about Primo Comets' handling in wet conditions. Although I never found that to be the case.

In 349, my favorite tire is easily the Greenspeed Scorcher. It fits nicely on the tikit. Although the caliper brakes suggests that it won't fit on the Pakit.
