Strengths: light
reliable
inexpensiveWeaknesses: no particular weakness found.Bottom Line: I´m using this tire on the front wheel in
combination with Michelin Axial Pro on the rear since 2001. (Received the tires as a
gift).
Best experience in all situations. Best
suited for front wheel application. Very
frew punctures. More reliable than
Conti´s Supersonic at a comparable weight.
Great Price/Performance ratio.
Excellent product.

Strengths: Light, lively ride. Good tractionWeaknesses: No Kevlar protection.Bottom Line: I picked these up at an absolute bargain. The tyre looked so flimsy it made me hesitant to keep it on the bike after a couple of long distance events. Coming into summer I though, "what the heck" and left them on. My commute often goes through a lot of glass. These tyre hardly picked up a shred. I never flatted due to glass. I had 2 punctures due to metal intrusions (not the tyres fault). Before the rear got paper thin and I retired it. Pretty impressed. If they came up again on Special I would definately get them. Ride wise the tyre felt great. Probably only managed approx 2500kms out of the rear, front still going strong.

Strengths: decent tread, I guessWeaknesses: Punctures and pinches very easilyBottom Line: This is one of the worst tires I have owned in recent memory. The number of flats that I have gotten on this tire is approximately 20 in 6 months. The tire punctures easily (even with Mr Tuffy tire liners) and somehow is very prone to pinches even when inflated to 110 psi. Not nearly so many problems using Michelin tires on the same bike and roads. Definitely stay away from this one.

Strengths: Price, good for all around ridingWeaknesses: Wears quite fast, not a real pro tire.Bottom Line: Got a great deal for them, much cheaper then "pro" tires. While they don't last as much as my Conti's, I get some 600-700 miles on them with very few flats, a very decent ride overall.
Favorite Ride: Anything hilly.
