Gatorskin 700c for durability

I use this on my single speed that is used extensively for all sorts of conditions, wet and dry, with many obstacles from gravel and grit to glass and construction debris. I haven't had a flat yet, over several hundred miles. The roll resistance is superb and allows for all out sprints or long down hill descents without worry.

Thank you for your feedback.

The Best Tandem Tire

Have been using 32c Gatorskins for years on our tandem, both on fast club rides and 1,000 mile cycle tours with panniers. Running the rear at 105 to 110 psi, they hold up very well with few cuts, no blow outs, and tight bead even though we often ride stretches of dirt roads and canal paths. Had previously used Compass Cypres 32c tires but found their Kevlar beads stretched dangerously. Would love to have the Gatorskin in a 35c.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great Tire!

This was my second time purchasing Gatorskins. I do a lot of road biking for long distances, and my first pair lasted me two years (including two 7-day rides from San Francisco to Los Angeles) and thousands of miles. They finally got worn down and needed to be replaced. I only had one flat tire in that time and it wasn't due to a puncture. I recommend these tires to my teammates all the time, and highly recommend them to anyone who's doing a lot of riding and doesn't want to deal with changing flats all the time.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great commutingtraining tire

Good all around choice for winter, bad roads, etc. Nothing's bullet-proof, but these are pretty close, and they wear well. If you need even better flat protection, the 'hardshell' version seems a bit better.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best all around tire. Period.

I am a tire freak. I have thought about, tested, and ridden so many tires-I don't even want to think about all the money I have spent. No matter what cool new tire I try, I always come back to the Gatorskins. They're not the fastest or the lightest, but if your looking for a great all around riding tire for regular riding and training, Gatorskins are by far the best bet.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best Tire for the buck

Great tires that last a long time and resist puncturing. I have been riding these and 4000 SII tires for a few years now and I love them both. This tends to be my go to winter tire. Have put over 2500 miles and they still have life.

Thank you for your feedback.

Good tire

I've ridden these before. Nice ride. I commute on paved trails and city streets about 40 miles round trip. No flats, even in early spring with lots of debris on the roads. A bit tough to get on, but worth the work.

worth every penny

I've used these for years. Well worth the money. Aggravating flats in the middle of a long ride are a rarity now.

Best tire with easy handling and long wear.

Use in weekly group rides in the Orlando area. The tires last many miles and are easy on the pocketbook. They are hard to put on a wheel.

Best tire that I have found for performance and durability.

Very good value for these tires, I've used these Gatorskins for the past 6 or 7 years. Almost puncture proof and well worth the extra weight and stiffness.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great tire!

Love these tires. I hate flats so so love the puncture protection. They are not 100% puncture proof, but much better than lighter Race tires.

A little pricey but very durable and flat resistant.

I purchased 25mm and experienced decent ride, higher PSI and puncture resistant. Holds up even on gravel. Wear indicators are good reminder when replacements are due.
