my new fave tire. Natural rubber. Jazzy electric blue, too 
Almost tube like buttery ride. Seem to last pretty well, so far, despite my powersilde addiction

They are ok tires...nothing special. They feel ok but I seem to remember they wear fast and didn't have great feel- that was 2 years ago and have moved on to other tires. They are fine tires for the price though.

I'm riding a Continental Ultra 2000 in back right now and I really like it. I just ordered another one for the front. Would've bought local, but nobody seemed to have 700x28.

It's a shame but I've run into this with ...
pedals (decent platforms), a B-17, nice grips
I feel like I'm part of the problem ordering online, but, after visiting two or three shops w/ very little accessory stock it's worth the postage.
