Strengths: Thick treadWeaknesses: Cracks in rubber and under layer of outer tread at <1000 miles, heavy, lousy customer service from HutchinsonBottom Line: Been riding on these tires for around 2 years, do a lot of climbing so not a lot of mileage. There are minute cracks on the sidewall and the outer tread seems to be lifting off the tire, as you can see longer cracks running around the circumference just under the thicker outer tread area. I contacted Hutchinson several times to ask if this was a dangerous condition but they never replied each time. Won't buy Hutchinson tires again.

Strengths: excellant grip wet or dry. rigid sidewalls, not chintzy to look at, seem just as fast as any other tyre.
Puncture resistance is peace of mind.
Easy to mount.
Dark colour suits frame
Weaknesses: Inital outlay is expensive, but allready they've earned their keep.
Slightly heavier than some.Bottom Line: Was using bontrager race x lites which came with the bike. Since changing over to hutchinson fusion 2, i've had no flats for over 1000 km. Have ridden through heaps of roadside accident glass,broken plastic which were too late to avoid with no puncture or damage. Even over a broken VB stubbie.
Favorite Ride: any

Strengths: Ease of mounting on Neuvation rims.
Durable, reliable and comfortable thread.
Puncture resistant and low rolling resistance.Weaknesses: The rear tire thread wears out faster than the front, but I weight 185 lbs.Bottom Line: These tires were a breeze to mount on my Neuvation M28 Aero2's. The thread is beefy but does not interfere with the perception of rolling resistance. The thread is also very long lasting and puncture resistant, no flats in 6 months of daily training rides of 30-40 miles, over roads in poor repair, lots of pot holes and debris. I have ridden over broken glass, and even loose torns over the desert southwest NM/AZ and no flats yet! They are also very comfortable on my 100-120 miler weekend epic rides and make a soothing humming sound at speeds >20 MPH- very soothing when I am solo riding through the pain...
Favorite Ride: Anywhere with good weather.

Strengths: Durability ( I change them out yearly and use the older tires on my rollers)Weaknesses: NOTHINGBottom Line: I have used these tires faithfully on Texan roads and by far they are the most durable and best handling in dry and wet conditions. I stock up on them since I use them on my triathlon and road racing bikes.
