2007 Fuji Track Bike Setup:
Stock 2007 Fuji Track, 61cm with Kenda Koncept tire in front (soon to be Armidillo Pro), and White Soma Everwear in rear. 48/15 gearing (5-10 skid patches), Profile rear cog. Summary:
I recently purchased the Soma Everwear tires on one rainy day (today) and have nothing but good to say about them. Even though I haven't really had a chance to break them in or anything, they skid GREAT. Ironically, they have good rolling traction even in the slick rain they were forced to make their debut in. I like the color variety (I chose white, to compliment the Black/Grey/Gold scheme I am going for), and the fact they are made of 5mm thick long wear tread. My friend skids like crazy with them and the only thing left behind is the smell of burnt rubber!
Definitely satisfied. Strengths:
5mm thick Long Wear tread,
Excellent durability, rolling traction
Plenty of color choices,
Low price,
Great on fixies,
Great for skids,
Great for messengers
Weaknesses:
Not reliable for emergency skid stops (get a brake),
Weight,
Sliding traction* (*Unless seeking a tire for skids)
