Ive used Conti Gatorbacks on most my bikes in the past with good results. Goat heads are a different breed though, lol.
I don't know how good the new Spec Armadillo is because they lightened the tire by about 200 grams to 395 grams which is 100 grams more than the Gator back, not sure where the weight came off, but they seem to have remained highly punctured resistant from what I've read.
