Just FWIW, turbo cottons are so supple that they roll over anything, rather than pick it up, and IMO were very reliable. Way more so than a Corsa.
Corsa Control’a are now my go to for a reliable, fast, relatively cheap, supple tyre.
GP5000s are fast but they’re so dead to ride compared to Corsa’s and Turbo Cotton’s. That sidewall has zero flex whatsoever.
Genuinely riding more my alloy "training" wheels with corsas than the deep carbons with GP5000. Tires just feel better, especially in bumpy roads.
Just changed a set of the newer Veloflex Corsa EVO after 9,000km. They cut up a lot less and lasted a lot longer than the older models. Recommend.
