Just got this tire for the rear and in my rush to the glory it is reported to produce, I put the effer on backwards. Being that I am extremely lazy, I really don't wanna pull it off and turn it around...even though it is tubed. Anyone running this bad boy backwards on their rear wheel? The front is a Nobby Nic 2.25, and truth be told I am looking to hook up a little more with the trail, as I am riding in relatively wet conditions with a boatload of roots, leaves, a couple of rock gardens and some loose-over-hard climbs. There are a couple of fairly intense technical/rocky sections, as well. Oh, and does anyone else feel that the Nobby Nics suggested direction is actually baclwards? Intuitively, it appears as if it should be mounted "backwards"...

Thx,

PS - Bike is a Trek Superfly 100 AL Elite full squish.

I used to run my Exiwolf backwards as a rear tire so you are probably good to go to get as much as you can out of that particular tire as a rear tire.

There area lot of better tire options out there than the Exiwolf these days in my humble opinion.
