Yeah I only weigh 145 and this bike is not going to be a daily ride, so I am very likely to get the Titans. You can get a pair for $140 right now. Rubber will probably Michelin Krylion Carbon (remember this is going to be a backup/bad weather bike). Of course the main ride is GP4000s.

Thanks for the comments, any and all suggestions are appreciated!
