Price Paid:  $63.00 at Incycle Bicycles

Favorite Ride:
PCH

Bike Setup:
Colnago C50
Campy Record Gruppo
Bora wheels

Summary:
Great tire for the money. I have been riding on these tires for about 5 years. I have never had a flat. I can not honestly say how many miles these tires will last because I switch wheels often. I can say they are very puncture resistant, within reason. They hold air really well. Great training tire.
Not the fastest or lightest tire out there but again for the money they are great.

Strengths:
good price
durable
good grip

Weaknesses:
not the straightest tire when mounted due to cloth seam.

Price Paid:  $0.00

Summary:
Good ride overall. Ride is slightly rougher than others. The flat resistance is better than others. Its good for the price. The cheap models I tried flatted easier. The production quality is good and reliable. Kind of similar to a wide continental grand prix but narrower. I am not sure if this old tire has as good grip is as more modern tires but it holds on various surfaces including sand (bike paths). The profile is slightly different from other tires. I think this tire is a great training tire if you can get a great deal on it.

Strengths:
good ride, flat resistance

Weaknesses:
not as good as pricier
