Back in April I still had the original Schwabe Lugano's that came on my Synapse and just under 1000 miles the rear flats started some pinch some just crud on the roads but always the rear and got caught in a pretty good storm in S.Florida when the pin in my Lezyne trigger CO2 inflator broke. This trend continued into May when after at least 6 flats I went into my LBS back in NY to have him take a look at the rear tire which he agreed was shot.
Changed both tires to Conti 4000s and have 1800 miles on them and barely look worn. One pinch flat caused by junk on a main intersection. I now never leave home without two tubes and two 16gm cartridges to insure I don't get a flat.
