I've been using these on my daily commute for a couple of months now, and they've held up great. I ride through the city with my kids sometimes, and it's reassuring not to worry about flats from all the debris. The tire glides well, making the ride comfortable even on rough roads. It does add a little weight to the bike, but the trade-off for reliability is worth it. Overall, a good investment for city cycling.
- Pros: Incredibly tough against punctures, handled Seattle's rough streets without a single flat, and the ride is smooth over bumps and potholes. For the price, it seems like a solid choice that doesn't sacrifice looks for durability.
- Cons: A bit heavier than some other options, which might slow you down a touch, and the initial cost is higher, though it could pay off over time.
