from San Juan Islands Date Reviewed: October 12, 2009 Strengths: Look, Ma! No flats. Much of the year I ride paved urban bike trails. These are much quieter than knobbies on blacktop. Seem to be a bit faster. Gets me back into the "Whispering Death" mode (TCdA trail crew nickname for the roadies. When you hear the whizz, he is on top of you.) Summer I get out. Just did eight states, seventeen rail trails, a week in Moab and assorted summmer riding and no flats. Lots of sharp pointy rocks up on The Wedge. Glass on streets. Lots of thin, sharp clam shell frags on the TT Trail (crows dig up clams, take flying, drop on the blacktop to open). Colleague who commutes on the TT was getting a flat a week with knobbies. The shell bits would hit between knobs. The Xroads have a lot of rubber where it meets the road. It's like an armor belt. The knobs on the edges seem to work in cornering. I remain ed with the bike all summer rather than ahead, astern or alongside. Not sure where I hit 30.4 on the River Mts. Loop, but thats what the GPS said. It was on a set of switchbacks and I was more worried about gravel in the turns than turn of speed. It was fun. I took the Kendas along, just in case. Did not have to swap over. They are now in the attic. Weaknesses: Well, mud can be an issue. But I hate mud. Still getting the mud from the St. Paul Tunnel out of odd corners. Rain, others have addressed. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes Duration Product Used: 6 months Price Paid: $40.00 Purchased At: Specialized - on lin Similar Products Used: Kenda Kinetics (OEM) Bike Setup: Swiss Bike LX folding hardtail

from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Date Reviewed: August 16, 2007 Strengths: Quiet. Low rolling resistance. 35-80psi. Look good on satin black powder coated frame. No flats in three months so far. Weaknesses: I can not put these on my 1996 Norco Kokanee because it is dark metallic green and that would just look wrong with the red sidewalls. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $40.00 Purchased At: Revolution Cycle Similar Products Used: Continental Traffic, Bontrager Connection Trail B, Kenda Kinetics, Maxxis Holy Rollers, Vee Rubber I forget what ones were stock norco a long time ago.
