How do those kind of tires compare to your typical hard case mass produced tire in terms of durability...like how many miles do you get out of em?
I have a set of Challenge Parigi-Roubaix clinchers on one bike. I bought them used w/ low mileage, so I didn't have a big outlay. I haven't put as many miles on them as on Grand Bois Cypres or Panaracer Paselas, but they feel pretty good. I'm glad I didn't pay retail, however, as I like the Grand Bois much more.
