Schwalbes and Gatorskins have been good for me. The Conti's look better with their ultra cool, NASCAR style lettering, though
I think the Schwalbes are better in wet and cornering, but the thing that some might find undesirable about the Conti's, i.e. stiff and unresilient, is a positive to me riding chunked-up, pot-holed streets. Im riding the 25's and they have taken a real beating but havent transferred said beating to my back and rims like other super skinny tires have in the past. Another useless opinion out of Kentucky
