Which Tyres?

Gatorskin 28c is my choice, but might be better ones out there.

I've never got a flat with gatorskins. That said I have Michelin pro 4 endurance now and they feel nicer

I hated paselas but loved ribmos. Very puncture proof and good for skidding if thats your thing. Not too pricey either. I was using 35c admittedly but found paselas to be some of the slowest tyres ive used

Durano or Durano Plus if you want really bulletproof. I've also got Rubino Pro in 28s that do well and are a bit lighter/faster than Durano but bit less durable.

Ribmo are great. Longer lasting and more PP than Duranos, better ride than gators. If you can squeeze 32s the vittoria tyres I’ve got on the Thorn have been great so far, can’t recall the model but can check.

I have flatted many times on gatorskins and several times the lack of wet grip has nearly had me on my arse.

Vittoria rubino's are possibly worth a punt but there will always be a trade off between puncture resistance, comfort, pace and grip.

These Lifeline race tyres are a bargain I think. £16 each. Come in 28c flavor too. http://www.wiggle.co.uk/lifeline-prime-race-road-tyre-1/

Rubber seems supple and grippy like a much more expensive tyre. Claims to have a puncture belt and I haven't had anything yet, only about 500 miles in now, so not a real review.

They seem to have saved some money by not finishing the tyres as well as proper branded offerings. Comes with the little hair/bobbles from the mold and a tiny little flap down the middle. I trimmed the bobbles with nail clippers as they buzzed on my calipers while the central bit wore off after a bit. Happy to do that if it saves me £20.

Edit: they do a more armored one too, 28c all gone though.. http://www.wiggle.co.uk/lifeline-prime-armour-road-tyre/
