yostinsoI've only had these tires for a couple of weeks now, but I'm enjoying them well enough. They're quite comfortably smooth and have pretty good grip for commuting, etc. Just for giggles, I've skidded a couple of times, and couldn't see any evidence of the skid wear on the tire.
I did have several blowouts early on with these tires, though. I put these tires on two different bikes, both previously with 700x28 tires. During installation, I manged to blow out all four of my spare 28-32 tubes; it turns out these tires really something like 27.8mm. I switched to 24-28 tubes, and that seemed to do the trick, but it was an aggravating couple of hours.
