Thanks for the reply. I live in the northeast. Most of my problems come from choppy pavement (New England winters) I've had the gatorskins recommended for "some" flat protection, armadillos recommended for "a high degree" of flat protection, and the Vittoria Radonneur (in a 32) also for a high degree of flat protection. I currently ride Vittoria Roma 25's, which are Kevlar belted. They're worn out and need rto be replaced.
