Strengths: Roll out nice
Light weight
Very trueWeaknesses: Constuction must be flawed in some lotsBottom Line: At first, these were some of the best tubulars I have had. I glued them up meticulously, they rolled out beautifully and performed better than I had hoped. These were race day only tires. Then, ~200 miles later, ~6mo later, the front began to crack, and impressively enough I showed a buddy and he said 'your not gonna race that?' and I did. But did have to get rid of them as the back one began doing the same. I called Conti and they want me to take them to the LBS and I hope they will stand by their product, but its expensive and my pay out as cat4 isn't enough to pay for tires every 200miles.

Strengths: NoneWeaknesses: Lasts 20 miles - very expensive per foot riddenBottom Line: Junk tires, my rear blew out after 20 miles on smooth pavement for no apparent reason. Huge cut across entire tire surface. No foam could save that. That was a walking day I guess. Not getting any more of these for sure.

Strengths: good price
durable
good grip
Weaknesses: not the straightest tire when mounted due to cloth seam.Bottom Line: 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 ride, flat resistanceWeaknesses: not as good as pricierBottom Line: 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.
