Strengths:    free with the bike

Weaknesses:    heavy, slow to accelerate, poor riding as I had to run it at 60-70psi to get any real ride quality out of it.

Bottom Line:

Heavy and poor-riding. The best thing it did for me is have a sidewall blow-out, allowing me to have it replaced under warranty but I got to upgrade the replacement to the CX Pro tire, the 120tpi folding version of this tire, which accelerates more quickly and rides much more nicely- at a higher pressure.
