I put on some Specialized roubaix 2bliss 32c on my Exploro and basically fell in love with the fatter tyres. So my only "problem" is weight. I really do want to get the bike as low as possible, since I'm using it as a road bike as well.
Came across the Rene Herse/Compass tyres. Their 32c Extralight tyre has a claimed weight of 254 g., which sounds incredible really.
Has anyone tried Rene Herse? Does Extralight thing mean that the tyre will puncture a lot and will wear out really really fast ?
