Anywho as I have been looking around the net (as well as this forum) I came across the town & country's a few times. How do you all think these tires hold-up? You guys have any recommendations for a guy lookin to slap on some slicks that are sturdy enough for the mean streets of LA but nimble as well? oh and at a reasonable price??
GEAX Kevlar Semislicks.
My experience with them? 3000 miles plus through 3rd world countries, and not a puncture.
And I had 70 pounds worth of extra gear, food, and water on my bike. Hey, if they held up in those conditions, imagine puny little Los Angeles? Ask you LBS for them. I'm sure they carry em. They're like $25 a pop.
