Strengths:    perfect tire for converting your old hardtail to street cruiser, rolling resistance is very low, rounded profile makes leaning in smooth

Weaknesses:    not as smooth rolling as Maxis Hookworm but in the same class

Bottom Line:   
turns an MTB into a street rocket, no problem with wear or flats or mounting problems, rotated front and rear after one year to balance wear

Strengths:    Roll fast! Cushy ride.

Weaknesses:    Heavyish. Hard to get the bead seated.

Bottom Line:   
These tires surprised me. First off, I'm not using them for their intended purpose. They are strictly commuter duty. They were pretty inexpensive, but have worn incredibly well. Despite their weight, they roll fast. A little tough going uphill on a two speeder, but I like the challenge. I'm cutting it pretty close on clearance with a 2.3" on the little Trek, but they do fit. No issues with flats at this point. They did slide out a little on me on one occasion, but it was on a sealcoated asphalt parking lot, leaned over a bit too far. A little two-wheel drift on your morning commute is a good thing.
