Strengths: These tires are great for a straight smooth long bike path. They are hard as a rock. A little tough to put on the rim, spray a lube around the rim and tire makes it a lot easier. I like the stiffness and the non wear on them.Weaknesses: I did purchase one and after mounting the tire, it formed a bubble. Took the tire off and noticed the carbon fiber in one place had separated. I have purchased more of these tires since that happened and have never had that problem again.Bottom Line: Best tire for the bucks that I have found.

Strengths: Price is right. Smooth which is great for indoor trainers. Durable.Weaknesses: Difficult to mount onto rimBottom Line: Great, strong, bald tire. The only problem is getting them on and off rims. They are "incredibly" tight-fitting. There is no way you will get these on your hands or even basic blastic tire-irons. You will need heavy-duty plastic ones. Be prepared to struggle, seriously.

Strengths: DURABILITY AND FLAT RESISTENT.Weaknesses: NOT A SUPPLE RIDE. NOT A TIRE FOR A RAINY DAY.Bottom Line: This tire wears like iron. After 2000KM plus the tire shows hardly any signs of wear. The downside is you feel every little stone and pavement ripple between the road and rubber.
THIS TIRE DOES NOT PERFORM WELL ON WET ROADS. THE TIRE DOES NOT GRIP A RAIN SOAKED PAVEMENT WELL AND DOES NOT INSPIRE CONFIDENCE IN SHARP TURNS.

Strengths: Durability; plush ride in size 700x25cWeaknesses: True size larger than advertised; can be slippy in the wetBottom Line: Hi all: Got 5000 km out of the tyres in size 700x25c. First two flats after 5000 km (big thorn in the front tyre; chip in the rear) on horribly bad scottish roads around Edinburgh. Can see through to the carcass on the rear tyre after 5000 km.
Good tyres worth the price.
Good compfy tyres in size 25mm. NOTE: real size on my Fulcrum R5 rims: 26.mm wide and 25mm high. Check tyre clearance ob your bike.
Rating only 4 though due to not perfect swerve in the wet.
