Bottom Line:   
Luganos came on my Cannondale CAAD10. Developed a bulge on front tire at only 600 miles, which eventually blew out in a 1 inch hole. The cords had separated. At that point there was cord visible at other locations where rubber peeled off. Maybe just a bad tire, but fortunately I was only going 20 mph, not flying down a hill. I've had lots of flats, but never had a tire fail.

Strengths:    Smooth and decent feel for clincher tire.

Weaknesses:    punctures/pinch-flats easily.

Bottom Line:   
These tires came stock on my 2011 Cannondale CAAD10. They rode fine, but punctured easily and frequently...usually pinch flats as they do not have a very robust structure and pinch-flat easily under pressure from hitting rocks, or pavement cracks/transitions, small holes, etc.

Strengths:    Good smooth ride on decent road surface with fairly low rolling resistance.

Weaknesses:    Hard ride, unforgiving on poor road surfaces.

Bottom Line:   
These tyres came fitted to my Dawes Audax when I bought if. They were ok for riding on the good road surfaces where I used to live in Yorkshire but now, living in the Western Isles were the roads tend to have a rougher surface, riding on these tyres has become a pain. I now get a lot of vibration through the handle bars and the seat and reducing the pressure down to 80psi hasn't improved comfort much but has resulted in a pinch puncture (thanks to a cattle grid). I therefore would not recommend these tyres for use other then on decent road surfaces.

Strengths:    EXCELLENT GRIP IN DRY NO PUNCTURES

Weaknesses:    NONE

Bottom Line:   
I HAVE HAD TWO SETS OF THESES TYRES FITTED ON MY GIANT OCR ROAD RACING BIKE FIRST SET PROB USED FOR 300 MILES REASON FOR THIS WAS DUE TO INJURY & WHILST BIKE WAS NOT USED IT WAS SAT ON FLOOR ALL TIME & NOT HUNG UP SO NO WEIGHT WAS ON TYRES BEING LEFT ON TYRES & PUMPED UP EVERY MONTH THE SIDE WALLS PERISHED BUT THE TYRES WERE FITTED SINCE I HAD BIKE NEW WHICH IS ABOUT 6 YEARS.
I THEN PURCHASED A REPLACEMENT SET AND THESES HAVE DONE ABOUT 200 MILE APPROXIMATELY AND I HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS AT ALL ONLY THING I HAVE DONE IS INSTEAD OF INFLATING THEM TO 110 PSI I HAVE REDUCED THIS FRONT 90PSI & REAR 100PSI & HAVE FOUND THIS TO BE A LOT LESS HARSHER RIDER IM GOING TO TRY RIDING ALL YEAR ROUND THIS YEAR 2010 SO I WIL FIND OUT WHAT THEY ARE LIKE THROUGH THE WINTER RIDING. BUT APART FROM THAT THEY ARE A VERY GOOD TYRE
