Andy - Thanks for being thorough! This is all SUPER helpful. I'd rather pay less money than more, but am willing to put in maybe $50 or $60 a tire if it'll really make a difference. Looking at some of the suggestions it seems like there are a lot of recommended tires in a higher price range. Maybe I should reconsider? Those T-Servs seem like a good deal - do you think having that tread would feel significantly slower/different from a more slick tire choice. $30/tire with the recommendation of someone from Medway, hmmm. I grew up in Walpole.
