I bought a pair of these in March for my new Boardman road bike. I really wanted to minimise the punctures. The Hampshire back roads I ride on are covered in flints and gravel. I also want a little bit more comfort.

I like them, they are light for puncture resistant tyres and absolutely no problems in 700 miles so far. I took the road bike down a stretch of the Kennet and Avon Tow Path just to see what would happen. The flints and stones were pinging off the tyres :smile:

I run them at around 110 psi (near their upper limit) and find them a reasonably comfortable ride.

I have no experience in wet / damp conditions, my road bike does not do wet, I always take the Hybrid out if the weather looks dodgy.

A good time to buy them as well, take a look at the Planet X website for a nice surprise, much cheaper than what I paid.
