I came off my bike earlier in the week, I'm ok save for a bit of road rash and sore right arm and leg. I have the stock Giant P-R3, Flat Guard tyres which came with my Defy 1, they have been great so far and haven't suffered a single puncture. I'm a bit nervous about using them again though in the wet as I think they let me down on the bend which had me sliding along the road on my arse and elbow.
Until now I had been very confident of these wheels and had no plans to replace them for the winter. Was I just unlucky, or was I pushing my luck with slicks in the winter?
I see lots of praise for the conti 4 seasons and marathon plus, but my main concern at this stage is grip, rather than puncture proofing, but I'd take both if I can get them!
