Strengths: durable and predictableWeaknesses: none - maybe a bit heavy, more resistanceBottom Line: These have been very durable for the 1500 miles i've put on them, i even won a race with them. I always felt safe with them going on long rides and long downhill sections with sustained speeds of 30-40mph. I think i had one flat from a thorn on the back tire.
Favorite Ride: the 2

Strengths: Seemed to grip ok on decents. Since I live in Phoenix, I never had the opportunity to try out on wet streets.Weaknesses: Durability. Rear tire developed sidewall tear after less than 200 milesBottom Line: Since I am relatively new to the world of cycling and triathlons, I can't comment on all of the properties of a road tire. However, I have only riden on these pieces of junk for less than 200 miles and I've already had a flat on the front and the back tire has a nice tear on the sidewall along the entire circumference.
Favorite Ride: Felt F5C
Price Paid:
$1800.00

Bike Setup: Felt F5C (full carbon frame)

Strengths: Seemed durable. No flats.Weaknesses: Sluggish. Noisy.Bottom Line: These sluggish sides of ham came with my 2005 Felt 60 (NOS). Halfway into my rides I would look back to see if rear tire was flat or losing air. The road noise was worse than a Fiat x19. Changed out to Vredestein Fortezza Roads and will review after I've logged some miles. I've had Vittorias before but thos product is a dud.
Favorite Ride: Rosarito Beach to Ensenada, MX
Purchased At: Came with Felt 60
Similar Products Used: Panaracer. Vittoria. Vredestein. Michelin and from the gool ol' days, Inouye Rubber Company.

Strengths: No punctures in the little riding I've done on them.Weaknesses: Rubber cracked all along sidewall and tread starting to seperate from the casing. Less than 200 miles and they are going in the garbage.Bottom Line: These tires came stock on my Felt F65, I've put about 150 miles on them and they are all cracked along the casing right below the tread. In fact, it looks like the tread is starting to come off the casing in some spots. I have some Michelins coming today and I will be scraping these tires.
My LBS agrees that they need to be replaced and they have ordered a similar OEM quality tire for me but it hasn't come in yet. I'll probably just use those as spares.
Favorite Ride: Any ride where I feel like I pushed myself!
Purchased At: LBS
Similar Products Used: Vittoria Rubino Pro
Bike Setup: Felt F65, stock.

Strengths: Extremely durable.Weaknesses: I don't corner hard on descents, so I don't know how these slicks grip in those conditions.Bottom Line: These 25c tires came stock with my Bianchi Strada. More than 3000k later, they're just beginning to show signs of serious wear. Very smooth, low resistance, only one puncture flat in all that time (I've had a couple of stem blowouts, though).
Favorite Ride: 40K through hills of Rensselaer County
Bike Setup: Bianchi Strada road bike, flat bar and aerobars.
