My setup
Ikon 29er 2.20 exo (protection version) - claimed weight 575g
Mounted tubeless on Crest Rims.
Previous setup
Conti Race King 2.2 - claimed weight 650g
Maxxis Crossmark
Maxxis Aspen
I have had no problems with the Ikons. They mounted very easily--much easier than the race kings.. They have a similar feel to the race king, however, I like the fact that they are lighter, cost less, and have the exo protection. The tire grips well, especially on the corners. Maybe it is just in my head, but it feels smooth/fast as it rolls.
The Ikon is also offered in a 29er version without the exo protection. The weight is 520g.
Bottom line - my new favorite tire.
