What tyres for crabon clinchers? Open Corsa SC II? I have GP4ks and they have been excellent but will likely keep them for my alloy wet weather set. Something quick for the summer. Can't afford the new G+ things really.

It's a matte black bike so considering gumwalls for tumblr points too.

Veloflex are amazing, but do keep an eye on the sidewalls. My Reynolds seem to have cut into them and bulged out on the last set I had. Previous sets were absolutely fine until the tread wore out, rode them all winter too without too many punctures

Veloflex now come with a warning that they are not to be used with carbon clinchers, specifically because of that.

There were reported cases of people suffering blowouts, after the carbon had cut through the sidewall.
