CADEX

The CADEX Aero Cotton Road Tire is all that a high-end cotton tire should be, compliant, grippy and fast. There also relatively easy to mount on the tubeless rim.

The squeeze is that the QC of handmade tires leave a lot to be desired.

I added extra sealant because the air loss was occurring at the sidewalls and the tread/sidewall joints.

First few rides, I lost 10 psi overnight. The tire outperforms these challenges. It's a 5-star tire for me.

I bought a brand new Domane and on the first ride, I had a puncture on the rear tire. And the "smurf juice" wasn't plugging it. So I had to use and glad I had them, a Dynaplug. The next day different route, again sprung a leak. At least this time the juice held. A week later same thing. You have to understand. I'm very easy on my equipment. Before this I had one flat in 12 months. Those Bon***** are trash. I've had very good success with Michelins in the past so I started shopping on BTD and came accross thses Cadex on sale. I researched them on bicyclerollingresistance.com and they got better marks than my Michs. So I gave them a shotand bought a pair. After 300 mi these are the best I've ever owned. I espically like the feeling in high speed corners. They inspire a lot of confidence.
