I swear by this tire, used it in Alaska for the Fireweed 400 mile race, Adirondack 540 mile race, Furnace Creek 508 mile race across Death Valley and Mohave, 24 hour races in Florida. Race Across America Solo, all races included dry, wet, ice, snow, wind, gravel, very rough roads across Kansas and Missouri.
Not to mention all of the multi-century training days for preparation for all of these races.
These tires are FLAWLESS, very easy to handle, mount and change. Great for steep climbs in wet conditions, really holds the road with almost no slipping.
These tires are my first choice, and I am not sponsored by Continental!
