Which Tyres?

[1hill@aTime]

i'm looking at getting a new set very soon, mine are worn, and am sick of punctures, what should i get?....gators?

 

i want something that can go up to about 9bar, and don't want to have take shares at the lbs either.

The new gators is really nice.  It feels like they dodge the thorns and glass. I never get a puncture with them. They are responsive and good priced.

Gator Skins only 8.5 bar but your'e a skinny guy so they will do you just fine.

Definitely Gators, bought myself a pair on monday for base training over December.

Go check out the Specialzed all condition pro's. Good price and VERY puncture resistant.

[1hill@aTime]

caad what price approx?

 

i got a price on two gators for R429 is that ok?

Dilbert says that the Scwalbe Ultemo's are also supposed to be very puncture proof, but they are less well known.

[1hill@aTime]

hows the rolling resistance of the gators and what they like in the wet?

[ewep]

Christie, tell Dilbert that the price is substantially higher than the Gators.  The Ultemo's are more of a racing tyre as well, ala GP4000

1Hill, as you know, RR doesn't really count for me, but in the wet the Gators rule!!!
