Makes a huge difference on my daily commute vs hybrid tires. I have yet to ride them in any rain.
Up against Hybrid? whatever they are- tyres- these will be good. But if you want a better rolling tyre with less drag you have to go narrower and a lot more pressure. I Ride a Tandem with 26" and use a couple of tyres- Schwalbe Marathons in 1.4 and a cheap Continental in 1.3 Both these tyres are high pressure at 120psi and Roll superbly. The Schwalbes have done in excess of 2,000 miles and were changed due to carcase damage on the front and a well worn rear tyre. The Continentals were put on and they are faster- but no idea on life yet.
And neither tyre has lost grip in the Wet- On wet leaves and road grit yes but that would happen with any tyre.
