Just a head's up for you tightwads...
Nashbar has the "Vittoria Randonneur Pro Touring Folding Tire" for $12.99. (normally $29.99)
Specs:
700x37
Weight: 430g
Thread count: 120tpi
Folding tire-kevlar bead
"Double Shielding" puncture protection
Reflective sidewalls
Couldn't find much info on these particular tires. It was written up favorably on the phred forum--lively road feel and strong/light combination. Seems that many high-end European trekking bikes come stock with these tires. If anybody has direct experience, please post.
I bought 4 with the 10% coupon. :)
