Strengths: none (unless you are tempted by the cheap price)Weaknesses: Too thin on the top, to flimsy all aroundBottom Line: This tire is a piece of junk. I went through one to two tires a week before realizing that this is not a particular streak of bad luck. The upper rubber compound is so thin that it gets punctured and cut by every tiny bit of debris on the road. I never had so many blow ups before. I had a couple of tires that lasted only 30 to 50 miles! Those few tires that make it past 300 miles will blow up from the side walls.

Strengths: they inflateWeaknesses: lumpy, especially at the higher PSI (near 140)Bottom Line: These tires pretty much suck. After gluing them up, I raced on them one time and had a horrible race because I was bouncing all over the place due to the lumps on both front and rear tires. I'm guessing this is because they were cheap tires and were manufactured as such, but they could have done a much better job. I'll probably just trash these and spend my money wisely for a better pair of tubulars.

Strengths: Few. It works pretty good as a spareWeaknesses: Lumpy, can't hold over 130 psi, lumpy, wears out fast, and lumpy.Bottom Line: I noticed they replaced the old reviews, so let me be the first to tell you: This tire is cheap junk. If you want a well-made, long lasting and round tire, this ain't it! Conti makes these tires in Thailand, along with all the other junk tubulars. For maybe $5 more, a Tufo S22 is miles ahead. You can still find Sprinters for about $35 each at some places, which is a much better deal. Don't waste your money on thesetires-you can do much better.
