Put some Shwalbe Marathons on the fixed a couple of days ago, massive difference in the ride.

Pluses -- hopefully no punctures, irons out the bumps well, they stick to the road like s^i1 to a blanket

Minuses -- its like pushing tractor tyres, slowing the bike down is much harder. I have failed to lock the back wheel up yet.

Funny time of year to be fitting winter tyres
I was going to switch to michelin Krylions on the commute bike but I missed the special offer at chainreaction :/
