I'm sure if you read the trellesport website it describes that there are two different methods of measuring tyres, sidewall width or tread width, and a 130 Mitas is the same as a 140 in other brands. I have had a 130 e09 on mine with no issues at all.

The narrower it is the better in the dirt it will be
I have had between 120 and 140 width on my XC without a problem.
cheers

I have not found a tyre that performs better for the price.
The Mitas range now have most surfaces/terrains covered.
I did 2 decent trips on a set last year, and the front can stay on for this year too. Never uad that from an MT21 or any other of the major branded treads available.

No, the E-09 wasn't used, but the Army Special. At first the AS was weird, squirming, but after a hundred or so miles, it was fine. Though remember that it's all compromise with the knobbly tyre,gain grip on the mud, loos grip on the tarmac.
I have an E-09 front and rear (130) to fit to my airhead project when it's ready to roll...
But now, I'm sticking with the AS front/140 E-09 rear on my XC.
Right, well I still have a new AS special for the front. It appears quite soft and wasn't sure it would be tough enough but need to think again.
I was going to use E09 rear, but have a new MT21, AS and E09 front to choose from
