I've read many, many, many, reviews on this tire, and the consensus is that they are very heavy and slow. Hard to spin up, and tiring for the long haul. I've never tried them, just a lot of research, just looking at tires, when I replaced tires on my son's bikes. Even on their website.

However, they do have good flat protection.

Price is decent, but price isn't the most important to me. Maybe that's why they are so cheap, relatively speaking.
