Olympics are, like all Conti tyres, a pain in the A* to mount but they work great. The Olympics are, I think, the absolute best track tyre you can get. They are light, incredibly round, roll wonderfully and are robust. They are just too darn expensive.. and due to fabrication problems they are now made of nylon instead of cotton.. and once that little old lady stops sewing....
Been told that Conti tubs aren't the roundest or the straightest. I've tried fitting Olympics for someone and they were a right pain in the cunt, too tight and not stretchy.
