These get good reviews from some. I put a pair on the wifes bike, she wouldn't be able to fix a flat. I might try a pair when the Durano's wear out the are a fair bit cheaper.

I've been using them for a few years now, I cover about 5000 miles a year and these have cut my punctures down to 1 or 2 a year, they like to be kept hard though, if the tyre pressure drops off a little bit it can be felt.

Used to use Durano + and will probably switch back when the weather gets really nasty but now use Pro 4 Endurance.

The Duranos are great for puncture protection but compared with the Pro 4 are like cycling through treacle since changing to Pro 4 I am much faster.

i saw these come in red as well so the op may like to try the pro 4 endurance?

i use durano + as i am a big rider 6'4" and 16.5 stone
i used to have gatorskins but they just kept puncturing, the durano plus lets me ride at 120psi (or more). I did notice a slow down from some pro 3's i had on before, but i decided i would get used to it in exchange for real puncture peace of mind on long rides. I dont have anybody to call if i have a run of punctures on same ride so im out there facing a long walk back if i have an issue...durano + tyres take some of that worry away for me.
I may try those pro 4 endurance next summer though..
