Strengths: None.Weaknesses: Little durability.Bottom Line: Just put the Stradius Pro on in March and the treads have worn through already after abour 1000 miles and I was walking for miles yesterday after two flats on the back tire. I am a heavier (235 lb) biker but had Continentals that lasted for 5 years plus. Amazed at the poor quality.
Favorite Ride: 30 miles
Price Paid:
$20.00
Purchased At: bikenashbar.com
Similar Products Used: I am going back to Continentals.
Bike Setup: Cannondale R400 - oldie but goodie.

Strengths: Very fast and light with low rolling resistance. I felt an immediate improvement in my speed. Make great christmas gifts for your "worst" biking enemies and competition!! ;-) You can watch them speed ahead (due to their lightness) with the quiet confidence that you will soon be passing them on the side of the road while they're fixing a flat!!!Weaknesses: Flat like nobody's business. Seriously, 3 flats in my first 70miles? C'mon.Bottom Line: I had the "Pro" version of these tires, and the only thing you will become Pro in with these tire is FIXING FLATS!!! Seriously, in my first 70miles I got 3 flats. I immediately took these off my wheels and returned them and got me some Vredestein's!!! I LOVE those, I was never sure what "supple" meant until I rode my Vredestein Fortezza Tricomps. :)
They actually are very light and quick, but when you factor in the time you will spend fixing flats they become VERY slow.

Strengths: They ride nice when they are not flat. 150 lb per sq in capacity.Weaknesses: The weakness is that the casing is weak.Bottom Line: Expect a flat tire every 50 miles. Plain and simple. Use these if you want an excuse to fondle your wheels frequently.

Strengths: 150 Psi ratingWeaknesses: Total vulnerability to punctures!Bottom Line: I bought a new set three days ago monted them last night. I then started a fifty mile training ride that I do two or three timed a week. I had both tires flat befor I had ridden 7 Miles! I have had only one other flat in 3500 miles of riding this year. dont buy this tire!! They are a crazy waste of time and money.
