You aren't kidding. I got the same tires on my commuter bike. They so much better than the old tires I had. And no more flats. I was getting a flat almost once a month... had one week where I got a flat 3 times. And the run is so much faster. Unforunately, I recently found out how they do on packed snow and ice... about the same as a road tire does... NOT good. LOL. So, I broke down and bought some back up wheels so I can have knobby tires and these slicks... I'm gonna use them as backups on my new bike... this old beater is just going to last til this spring/summer.
It's amazing how long it takes packed snow/ice to melt on the bike path.... especially in those places that doesn't get any sun. It's been over a week since we got snow.. and still there are some pretty long patchs of snow/ice on the paths. And we've had several 45 to 50F degree days.
