I commuted on 23mm gators for the last two years and had 3 flats in 8000 miles. One from a roofing nail, one from piece of wire and one pinch because of underinflation due to a faulty gauge.
Small triangular piece of glass, penetrated the thickest part of the tread at roughly the center of the tire. Tube was pierced such that it would go soft after a mile, not right away. Maybe sealant would have stopped that.
