    Summary:
    Grip? This has it in abundance. If other tyres feel sketchy as the nights get dark and the roads get greasy then this tyre brings back the confidence you are lacking. Mud, oil, wet leaves, paint lines.. Nothing seems to faze this tyre. I have been riding them on my winter bike as the pro 2 and now the pro 3 for the last few years and haven't found anything to compare. They have been on-road, off road, gravel, dirt, rain, frost. From Lands End to John O Groats.

    Strengths:
    Awesome grip. Like being on rails. Supple. Amply fast enough for the club run and inspire confidence in the corners.

    Weaknesses:
    Longevity. You'll only get about 3-5k miles out of them (a full winter) and they can cut up quite badly on the tread.

    Similar Products Used:
    Bontrager racelite (good in dry summers, no match in the winter)
