Price Paid:  $52.00 at Bike Nashbar

Favorite Ride:
65 mile training ride wih club

Bike Setup:
Fetish Penna, Mavic GL 330 tubular rims.

Summary:
Great tire! I cannot recommend them enough. They hold air very well, has very low rolling resistance, and corner like a GP Superbike! I have never flattened with these tires. I also have used the Sprinter 250 which is why I got these tires. Absolutely the best bang for the buck!

Strengths:
Low rolling resistance, excellent cornering, mounts on rim very straight, no lumps, light, holds air well, great value.

Weaknesses:
None that I can think of.

Summary:
These tires are awful! I am already on my fourth/fifth tire this season due to flats and such, and this weekend did it for me. Going around a turn the tire separated from the cloth gluing surface on the tire causing me to crash and cause a huge pile-up in the crit (I was sitting third). I shattered my rear American Classic 58 in the process. I will never use Continental tires again!

Strengths:
Cheap, decent rolling resistance

Weaknesses:
Cheaply made!!!
