+1 on the Armadillos. At the beginning of last year I was getting an average of one or two p****ures a week.

Then I fitted Armadillos and haven't had one since. (2,000 plus miles)

I've now swapped to Schwalbe Duranos, another well-reviewed* PR brand (the road version of the Marathon+). A bit more pricey. I'll see how they go.

Have you gone for Durano or Durano+ Pete?
I like my Durano +'s and will be buying more when these wear out, 2 flats in 3,000 miles and I'm talking mainly commuting miles.
I've found them easy to fit, much lighter than the M+ and hard wearing, though I do pick out several pieces of glass from them each week that would have defeated some tyres.

I've been using all condition armadillos (700 x 28c) on my commuter.
2000 miles on, and no visits yet.
Now I've said that, of course,............
