I love the 4ks. I did go down turning sharply on wet smooth slimy-with-with algae concrete one time.
I dunno. Very nice tires, really good grip, some puncture resistance with Vectran, decent durability. I went to 25 cm width for my rear, but I'm a clyde, I ride kinda s**ty roads.
I like Armadillos on my MTB. One flat in 3 years. I coulda been fine, except I saw this nail on my front tire, I just thought I'd pull it out. Big mistake. I could have gotten home if I'd left it there. I thought I was carrying a patch kit. Oops-not.

Was going to buy a pair last night only to get distracted and see that they were sold out this morning... oh well - picked up an Attack/Force pair, instead, for $73. Let's hope they don't suck.

Quick question - do they send out a shipping confirmation email or is the "Your Probikekit order has been received and will be dispatched soon," all the notification that you get?

Mine arrived today. On a Saturday. Less than a week from when I ordered them. My bank did charge me a Foreign Transaction Fee of $1.32. So more like $62 for the two tires delivered. Hah hah!
