What tyres are you using to commute to work?

Strange ain't it. I've been running Durano Plus on my commuter/touring bike for many years, on Spa Cycles handmade wheels made with Kinlin rims. Absolutely no problem getting the tyres on and off the rims.

Definitely a little tight on campag wheels in my experience. But nothing I couldn’t cope with.

Gatorskins are tough but heavy and slow.

I found Gatorskins anything but tough but as my experience with them was 15 years ago , I can only think they are a lot better these days .

As I may have already posted, it probably depends on the hazard. Gatorskins became pretty notorious with the group I ride with for having sidewalls that offer insufficient protection against our local arrowhead flints.
