New tires
 
Need some new tires that are strong so i wont get flats every other week, anyone have some in mind from the $40 range? I skid once in a while but definantly not a lot.

but if you get better tires, you're just going to want to skid all the time.

Tubulars. You'll never want to skid. Just go faster more comfortably.

Never had a flat in 6 months with Freedom Urban Elite Thickslicks. They are extremely heavy but totally impervious to flats. I've ridden straight through broken glass at 110 psi multiple times with no issues.

I moved on to much lighter tires now but if weight isn't a huge concern I'd recommend them.

Get da thickslicks. I'd get them if they would fit my blasted Kilo.

+1 for ThickSlick Urban Elites. If durability matters more than weight, I really don't think there's a tougher tire out there.
