Interesting... Can you expand on that please?
I bought 2 Big Apples, fitted them both, then took the rear one off, as it fouls the belt at a decent pressure. I'd like to see if I can get "Hookworms" in the UK, as they are supposedly (conflicting info' on the web site) a tad smaller.
I'm now looking for a suitable mudguard for the front.
So, I refitted the Marathon (was tricky I recall) which has now been on for > 100 miles (no flats, but wait untill Summer ;-) )
My wife's bike has a Primo on the back which has also amazingly had no flats recently.
The original tyres seem like puncture magnets :-)
