- I agree WHOLE-HEARTEDLY. I switched to Conts when my team was given a
- good deal on tires, and I was finally rescued from the god-awful
- Michelins that I had been riding (read: flats galore, torn sidewalls,
- etc).
-
- I have ridden a pair of Contis for over 5 months, no flats, no problems.
- (They were pretty dead when I changed them, though).
