Bikes: See my sig...

Here's another:

Tire: Continental Ultra Sport Kevlar
Size: 700:23
Price: $22.00 (all my quotes are in Cdn dollars)
Pros: Very fast and still a great ride at higher psi... and cheap !
Cons: None yet.

Fitted a pair of these to my fixed road bike thinking the ride might be a little harsh due to the psi (120) and narrower size but was blown away by the ride... the basic Ultra Sport has a terrible ride at 100 psi.

They were a pain to mount and I used Continental tubes and over inflated them to get them to seat.

Am hoping these are more puncture resistant than the Ultra Sport because I really like these tires.
