Strengths: round. black.Weaknesses: composition or construction, I dont know, but split cracked trash after a couple years.Bottom Line: Continental Countryride 28 x 1 3/8 , 1 5/8
Bought new from a LBS.
Previously had 10 years on whatever tires Bridgestone put on the new XO5 at the end of their existence but wanted to buy "insurance" for a trip.
Bought the Conti & new tubes and brought the works to China. Rode maybe 1000 km tops in flat paved Shanghai. Wear not really noticeable
BUT
Brought the bike back, aired em up after a few months and found both tires cracked just about everywhere - almost 100% split entire circumference at crown down to the cords, many smaller cracks sidewalls.
Wife's bike with about 1/10 that much use but the same time period , same split cracked junk.
Favorite Ride: down hill both ways
Price Paid:
$25.00

Strengths: nice tread for dirt roads; decent when they sink in shallow mudWeaknesses: heavy, but who cares? they're 37mm!Bottom Line: I have a set of old wheels that I use as beaters on dirt roads and rough terrain. I got the Conti Country Ride tires for these wheels. The tread is fairly smooth in the center with deeper tread on the outer edges. I can ride from home to the dirt and keep going.
Favorite Ride: dirt or asphalt roads
Price Paid:
$18.00
Purchased At: online

Bike Setup: Cannondale Cyclocross
