I've got new wheels coming in the next few weeks and highly tempted by the 26mm Turbo Cottons. However, In 7,000 km I've not yet had a puncture with 25mm GP4000IIs and have gotten complacent enough to leave my tools/gas at home lately.
Considering above comments about Durability am I to be sorely disappointed?
My old wheels are 11mm wide internally requiring a good 110+ PSI for effective use, is high pressure having a positive effect on my durability?
New wheels are a lot wider allowing for lower pressures and hopefully a bit more comfort.
