I took delivery of a new set of Comet Kevlar 1.50s for my Dahon. I was surprised to see that these tires, in the same size as the Scorchers but higher weight, accelerated quicker and rolled faster at low speed on my Dahon than the Scorchers do on my Swift. They felt lighter on the road than the Scorchers, even though they are actually 10 grams heavier! For a fair comparison, I'm going to mount the 1.50 Comets on my Swift and go for the same 10-mile ride.
