That's true, however, for the kind of riding I do on this bike I'm interested to see how they feel and hold up. Not really expecting too much longevity wise, maybe a summers worth of riding before they're worn out. I'm just hoping they roll faster than the Forte I have on the back, maybe even faster than my old conti tour ride.
