OK Gurus,
I'm looking for my next set of fast training/racing tires. I don't race enought to warrent a race specific tire so durability, punture resistance, and speed are my primary concerns. I currently ride tufo tub/clinchers on on wheelset and Hutch Carbon Comps on the other. The Hutchies roll much faster, have worn pretty well, but look more cut up than one of Mike Tyson's opponents. I have a set of protons, eurus, and a custom set of Nobium/ritcheys I'm working on (thanks Troy) so I need a pair that are not going to break my thumbs getting them onto campy wheels. I've read that Contis and Mich tires are both PITAs to mount.True? Anyone out there with experience with both? which will wear the best? Thanks!
