Strengths: Good looking, smooth ride with rubber that seems to stick to the road without causing serious rolling resistance. Ultra Cheap.Weaknesses: The other reviewer stated that the tires are a little flimsy. He/she's right. They are a little weak. HOWEVER, I ran a set of gatorskins on the bike and they too got flat when I rode over broken glass. The truth is no matter how thick the tire is it can only decreases the probability of a flat. It can never entirely rule it out. SO, for 1/4 the cost why not just ride the UltraSport and be a little extra cautious?Bottom Line: I've ran the Ultra sports on a couple different bikes now and in a couple of different sizes. I love them.

Strengths: Looks goodWeaknesses: doesn't work in Florida, too many sharp objects on the roads here.Bottom Line: This tire came on my Kona Paddywagon, and it was fine in CT but when i moved to Florida I was getting flats left and right. the LBS here actually gave me attitude about how many times i came in to have the replace the tube. the wire in the tire is nice and tight, no matter how low the pressure is it stays on the rim. which makes for a hell of a time getting these off when you do have a flat and then putting it back on afterwards, i ended up switching for an armidillo in the back and everything seems to be fine now.
Favorite Ride: anything
Price Paid:
$30.00
