My commuting bike is an MTB... Las summer I put some cheap slick tires on it with 80PSI max. What a difference did it makes compared to knobies. Now I'm looking for even harder tires, since my commuting is stickly on road, and I love speed

.

I was browsing around for tires when I found those : http://www.conti-online.com/generato...ix_mtb_en.html,
and I saw they could go to 120PSIMax (rec 95PSI)...

Anyone use those? Are they any good? Will I burn in hell for putting "road" tires on an MTB?

Oh, one more thing, my suplier has them for sale, but 2 different kinds: Folding tires and normal. What is a folding tire?
