Ive gone for the Ultremo zx with v guard because they look good and no other reason :laugh: I was going to put these on the TCR before I got the conti Grandsport race freebies so there was a little method in my madness .

Durano maybe? I replaced my repeatedly puncturing Gatorskin and have had no issues since - many thousands of miles .
To be fair to the Gator, there was some slight internal damage which was likely causing the puctures, as the remaining Gatorskin on the front is still going after maybe 12,000 miles without a single deflation

They roll very nice and are very fast . From a standing start at traffic lights I got up to speed very quick . They are also very responsive , almost twitchy but as I have only done around 10 miles on them I think that more to do with my bike handling :laugh: .
I bought the 23C and Evans price matched Wiggle so £45 .98 for the pair .
Puncture protection is the biggest issue for me as I was haunted by the P Fairy with Gatorskins . Armadillos have been good but fell apart so lets see how these do . I think if they fail the P thing then I will swap over and put the Conti Grand sport race on the Defy and I'm also gagging to put these Ultremos on the TCR .
If they both fail then I will go back to Armadillos for the Defy but I really hope Schwalbe have this one right .:thumbsup:
