Sorry to bring up such a mundane topic but I wanted to get some opinions on tires. (clinchers and tubs)
Clinchers - I have been riding on the old michelin pros for a while now. I love them, but dislike the problems with durability and cutting. Do like how cheap the old ones are now. I guess I would like some opinions on training tires.
Besides weight what are the disadvantages / advantages of Kevlar belted tires? How flat resistant are they? Does anyone have a specific brand/model they would recommend. Are there any non belted tires that anyone would reccomend that are still puncture resistant / long lasting?
Tubs -
Got as a gift a while ago a set of used racing wheels. (tubulars) This was definately a case of beware what you ask for. Tubular tires are EXPENSIVE. Does anyone have any opinions on specfic models / how long they last etc. It would also be very helpful if anyone has had experience with an expensive and a non as expensive tubular tire from teh same company
thank you
