Used these tyres in all weathers to commute to work, carrying a heavy laptop and gear. They have been excellent, good grip and no punctures despite using some country lanes with debris and potholes. They are perhaps a little heavier than some tyres without this level of durability. My main motivation for purchasing them was getting a dependable tyre to get me and my gear to work, they have certainly not let me down. I think they roll pretty well too. The reflective sidewalls provides good visibility in the dark. Highly recommended tyres.

I have a set of these in the 40c width and I have to say, they are fantastic commuter tires. Weight is reasonable and puncture protection is about as good as I've ever experienced. The reflective touch on the sidewall is a desirable feature.

I just took a pair of these for a test on a 12 day tour. They do ride well. The problem started when, somehow, an industrial staple penetrated the tire's defenses. I had a flat. I bent my old trusty, aluminum tire removers taking the tire off. It had been hard to get on the rim before the tour - I had to use a tool, unlike with almost all other tires and ended up wasting a tube that somehow I damaged when mounting one of the 2 tires on their rims. It takes forever to remove this tire. It's difficult putting the tire back on the rim when not in one's shop at home. So, what can one do when a flat occurs far from home? I'm a long time bicycle rider of many decades of fixing bicycles and flats, and find these difficult to use when one as problems. They get a 3 since ... MoreI just took a pair of these for a test on a 12 day tour. They do ride well. The problem started when, somehow, an industrial staple penetrated the tire's defenses.

I guess it's great if one has a support vehicle along, but in a greening world, one leaves the vehicle home and aims to survive with just the tools on one's bicycle.
