  • Sounds like will be a Paves vs Gatorskins then. I do remember many times wearing my clincher Gatorskins down to expose the mesh through the top of the tire...but that was due to constant skidding.

    Have you ridden Gator clinchers? Do the tub versions roll noticeable better?

    This has been a huge help...thanks to the both of you.

  • If you're riding in a city, then hands down Conti and I'd just go with the regular Sprinters.

    Glass isn't kind to the rubber Vittoria use, I used to get a month out of Vittoria's (albeit Corsas) before they where cut to shreads by glass. Conti's rubber compound much more durable to glass cuts.
    If you want to spend a bit more and get a nicer tub, consider Conti Comps or Schwalbe One's

    Keep the high tpi tubs (Vittoria, Veloflex etc) for dry riding along country lanes. They're lovely in the right conditions.
