Had them before in 700x23. I like them, they make them in wire bead and kevlar bead now. Kevlar beaded ones are a little tricky to get mounted initially, which is why this time around I went with wire and had a relatively easy time of mounting them. Wear is good, both versions are still made in Germany. The regular gatorskins are india now, plus there's not much difference price wise from the wire bead gator hardshell and the regular ultragatorskin.
