I originally bought these for my tandem, but with the fine ride I use these for all of my bikes! I use them for my commuter as well. They are very durable, but with an awesome smooth ride.
Bike Tires Direct always has great deals and incredibly fast shipping!

Excellent tire! This is my winter training tire and both traction and puncture resistance are excellent. Out of roughly 3k miles over the winter, I average 1-2 flats, which is completely acceptable for me.

I have been riding on Continental Grand Prix 4 Season tires for years. I won't use anything else. They are worth the premium you pay. I have had very few flats. The tires last a long time. Good road grip.

I use these tires on my road bike, a durable tire which I like, because the likelihood of this tire flatting is slim.

great tough long lasting tires
Review by Tandencaptain
We believe this tire gives us the best mileage of any tire we have used on our tandems. The handling and comfort of the tire exceeds the performance of other tires

Switched from GP 4000 and am getting way fewer flats. Not quite the same supple feel, but Ill ride these most days and be happier.

I wanted a tire for my cross bike that I could use off season on paved trail and road and not have to worry about flats and so far I am happy with my choice.

Mostly for street and trail riding. I wanted a good quality tire as this is the only point between me and the pavement. The value was fantastic. The LBS is selling these for [$] installed.

These tires really absorb a lot of the road vibrations that were transmitted with the Specialized tires. They really increased the ride comfort.
Review by Roger
This tire is now on the top of my list. Compared to Gatorskins, much more supple and much stickier on the road. Have much better feel and grip in the corners. Noticeably lighter than the Gatorskins and can feel the difference on the hills. Only downside is they are not as durable as Gatorskins. Interestingly, though, I have as many flats with these as with the Gatorskins-go figure. More than a little pricey though. But, greatly recommended.

Great tire especially when on sale
Review by nwwtrdude
Just got off my bike after a 13 mile ride on a beautiful Portland summer day. What a difference when compared to the Scwab Luganos that came with my Cannondale Synapse.
The Luganos felt like they wanted to roll off the rim while turning, felt every bump, worried everytime I went throught the bike lane marbles. I have a bad back and love the new bike design now with these new tires I have a whole new biking experiance. My intent was to get these tires for winter but decided based on the reviews and manufacturers specs decided to put them on this morning.
Even though I just got the tires I wanted to share the First Impression from a new guy perspective. Hight recommend.

Great tire. I have 500 miles on these tires - perfect! I am switching over from Gator Hard Shells, same great protection with smooth and sure footed ride.

I only have a few hundred miles on them so far but traction on both wet and dry pavement is very good and the wear seems to be good.
