  • My brain leaks like a sieve - what're the forum-approved commuting tyres these days? 25 or 28mm... I'd trawl through many pages but I'm writing this in a mini-break when the producer's out the room...

  • I thought GP4000s would get me through winter, always been good for past 2 years, new commute 5 punctures in 4 weeks with different tyres. I've gone to defcon 1 = Specialized Armadillo, feel rough but never had a puncture in 5 years of winter commuting. Was moaning to a colleague and he recommended Maxxis Re-Fuse, found them on Ebay £16.99 - will report back. Looking at various forum threads Schwalbe Marathon Plus appear to be highly rated

  • Marathon supreme for easy availability and price to performance ratio. Supple enough, light and disperse water well when installed in the right direction.

  • Durano

    Rubino Pro

  • Get 28's. Everyone (me included) is running 25's on their road bikes now so I can't see a single reason not to have 28's on your commuter. I recently upgraded my commuting tyres from 23's to 28's and my life is now better. Well, more comfortable, anyway.
