Honestly didn't ride them enough to know. I bought them during the bike build which then sat in storage for 6 months or more.
By the time I started riding again I was looking at doing SoG and AMR and I wanted to use tubeless inserts because of some fairly gnarly terrain + remote riding + fat fuck.
@skinny suggested CushCore and they go to 2.4" tyres so I swapped out the little-used 2.6" combo for a 2.35" Maxxis combo so I could run inserts.
I would think about the terrain you're using them on and how you ride. For me, I generally want bigger tyres because I'm heavy and shit. But then I have to hike a bike a lot, probably where other people ride, so maybe for me I'd be better with faster, slicker, lighter tyres and just walk more bits - that's what I had in mind for my Atlas repeat anyway. I wouldn't go bigger than 2.35 and I might choose a faster rear than Ardent Race.

Thanks for checking. I think I'm going to go 2.35 Mezcal in the rear.
How do you find the 2.6 though? Thinking of going wider in the front
