    Price Paid:  $20.00 at Nashbar

    Bike Setup:
    Coppi Genius w/Centaur. Chorus/Mavic OP 32 spoke standard wheels

    Summary:
    I've been using these on two bikes for the last 2 seasons. Not the best tire I have ever used but a very good value. Seems to ride well and not prone to flats. These can often be found on the net for <$20. For a training tire or the frugal recreational cyclist these are a good deal

    Strengths:
    low price, flat resistant, durable

    Weaknesses:
    not as subtle as more expensive tires

    Price Paid:  $21.00 at Performance

    Favorite Ride:
    Open roads

    Bike Setup:
    Stock Trek 2100ZR with Crankbros quatro pedals.

    Summary:
    I got these to replace the stock tires that came with my Trek 2100ZR (Bontrager Selects). I was looking for a tire with a higher presure limit since I'm a heavy large framed guy (6'3" 210lbs).

    After I installed these tires I played with the pressure a bit. I finally settled on about 145psi in the rear, and 130 in the front. My rolling resistance is much improved, hills are not as difficult, and cornering traction seems better (no wet riding yet).

    It's only been a couple days now so I'll update later on.

    Strengths:
    Cheap! higer pressure rating, low rolling resistance, better traction than previous tires.

    Weaknesses:
    Possible durability issues, but the cheapnes off-sets that.
