Review from What MTB
Check out the tyres worn by many top-flight XC racers and marathon riders, and you'll see more than a few Schwalbe Nobby Nics. That's for good reason, because they're one of the fastest-rolling, full-tread mountain bike tyres around. Schwalbe uses a super-thin Evolution casing. On this is placed a triple compound tread construction. It's designed to put hard-wearig rubber on the centre sections where wear is high and you want the low-energy absorption to help you roll fast, with softer stickier rubber in the intermediate and edge sections where you'll require extra grip to stick turns. nobby Nic also has a blocky, open-tread pattern that is faster than it looks. We are happy fitting to the Nobby Nic to almost any XC or trail bike, for any kind of condition and in any weather. Most of the time it will find traction and self-clean - exactly what you want, whether you're out for a weekend ride or keeping your part of a 24 hour fun team on track. They can be a bit prone to thorns and pinching on account of their thin casing, but just use some sealant like Sludge to flat-proof them.
In conclusion...
One of those rare tyres that can do it all, justifying the price
