The tire stick to the road very well and they roll smother and faster than any tire I've ever used.

I do enjoy these tires a lot, PROS - almost as light as a foldable tire, they last pretty good especially for being on a brakeless bike I'm constantly putting my foot in the tire to slow down or stop which puts more wear and tear on your tires, you can feel the ground well through them when you're riding also. I PERSONALLY like them at around 55 psi it feels good to land large gaps on but doesn't feel like your tire is too soft where it affects your steering and balance. CONS - you need to be aware of your bikes ability to fit these tires they CAN come very close to touching your forks and rear end of your bike so any small shift of your wheel or if your wheel becomes untrue at any point they might rub on your frame or forks which will have you messing with them a little when youre putting them on or changing a flat etc. this is a minor issue if you know what youre doing but if you are new it can be a bit of a pain to mess with, thats the only reason they dont get a 5 star from me otherwise I love this tire.
