BOMB PROOF tires - For those of you tired of flats

I know not everyone will like these tires. But it sounds like there are a lot of newbie riders who have been asking about about flat tires or what tires to use lately and I thought I would drop some knowledge.

I PERSONALLY have had nothing but awesome success with this tire. I ride with a group of 4 other people on a consistant basis and 3 of the other riders use this tire. I had 3000miles on this tire and had NO flats. It is SO nice to leave your house on a ride and not ever worry about a flat tire. (Bring a tube just in case) between the 4 of us....not 1 flat. They perform well, seemed to have a pretty low rolling resistance, had a good grip for a tire that has such a long life and comes in a crap ton of color options. There are lots of other options you can get that claim to also have very good puncture resistance such as armadillos or gp4000 (Ive heard people love these), but some of these higher end longevity tires run $80+ per tire vs $35 per tire for these. For the cost, I really dont think you can beat this tire, IF you looking for a tire that you can go out and ride city streets, country roads that have a lot of glass or crap that has been tossed into the roads.

I gotta be honest, I'm not using them right now because I wanted to try the vredestien tri comp. If this tire doesn't perform like I am hoping it to, I will be back to these.

I am not a salesman for them or anything at all. I just know what its like to have a flat on every ride and I also know the other side of the table where you can not worry ever about where you ride or ride over.

Like I said, not everyone will like the looks of it or had bad luck or something. but everyone I know who has used these has loved them for thousands of miles...flat free.
