Strengths: Good ride, good puncture resistance.Weaknesses: can't buy them anymoreBottom Line: Its a shame these tires are discontinued, I have used these for the years and just wore out my last set. I bought my last set at a big discount because black rubber was not fashionable anymore and I stayed with this pair as long as I could. Now I'm trying some Conti 3000's, not sure I like what I just read about sidewall blowouts.
Favorite Ride: downhill,downwind
Price Paid:

Bike Setup: The Three C's - Colnago, Campagnolo Cinelli - Colnago Mexico 1985 approx, Super Record group, Cinelli bars and stem, Flite Saddle, an oldie but a goodie.

Strengths: Had them on the road machine for some 8 years (better believe it - 4 years with little riding in the middle) and me being 230lbs (heavy) these babies have served me wellWeaknesses: nilBottom Line: Great tyres and I am loking foward to my next two. The side walls are now finished from age and a cut has allowed the tube to poke through.

Strengths: I have been commuting in San Francisco on these tires for a couple of months and have had no flats. The ride is nice, and they seem to corner well. I have also taken them on some long road rides and have no complaints. They mounted easily, and run true.Weaknesses: I don't know where to buy them now.Bottom Line: Great tires, great price.

Strengths: Good handling on pavement, light weight,Weaknesses: Durability, discontinued, not too great on a intercoastal steel bridge...Bottom Line: I like this tire, but after only about 500 miles a big chunk of rubber came off, rendering the tire useless. I've never seen anything like it. Too bad...
