FWIW, I've put 1342 miles on my Furious Freds, mostly on loose-ish, soft-ish terrain, but pavement too, and while the rear shows onlh a *tiny* bit of wear, and that only if you are conscientiously looking; even the little center knoblets on the center of the rear carcase are still almost whole.
PDG for a 360 gram -- actual, on mail scale, for all 3 of the tires I bought; one is a spare -- 2 X 29 tire! But I'm very interested in the Thunder Burts for a bit more traction -- after I wear out the FFs. I would guess that the TBs will be at least as durable. I am not a huge tester of tire makes and models, but having put considerable miles on 4 different Schwalbe models -- Kojak wire and kevlar (carcase the same on wire and kevlar bead models, says Schwalbe rep), Big Apple wire (26 and 29) and LiteSin (29, and Furious Freds -- I have to say that they must be among the top for combining good rolling with durability and flat resistance (the BAs and Kojaks are very flat resistant, in goathead land, compared to other tires of similar weight, and they roll very well for their bulk and build.
