Price Paid:  $0.00

Favorite Ride:
Round Coniston Water England

Bike Setup:
Reynolds 531, Campagnolo,T.A chainset Mavic Reflex rims

Summary:
Well made, astrong and light for the width. Give a smooth ride and easy to fit. I use the taped on version.Forget about messy glue, you could fit these while wearing your best suit. Iwish Icould comment on the sealant but I haven't punctured one yet.

Strengths:
Lightness for size of tyre,strength, ease of fitting, possibly ease of repair,smoothness of ride,very easy to centre on the rim.

Weaknesses:
Garish colours, Tufo should make a tyre about 25mm wide.

Price Paid:  $0.00

Bike Setup:
GT ZRX 2001, Winwood carbon fork, Spooky brakes, Shimano Ultegra/105 drivetrain. Mavic Cosmos (clinc

Summary:
Superior tyres for ANY rim. No one needs to put up with sluggish and rough clinchers any longer.

Strengths:
Terrific tyres for sealed surfaces and gravel. Give a comfortable and safe ride also in wet conditions. Superb quality, always round and tight. Same tyre available for both clincher and tubular rims. Modestly priced. Tubular clincher is an excellent opportunity for novices wanting to try the 'real' pushbike tyres. Mounting of tubular clinchers is a breeze

Weaknesses:
Repair (Sealant may clog valve core and render it unsuable). Limited availability (Australia)

Similar Products Used:
Hutchinson Cyclocross clincher, Tioga Cyclocross clincher
