So you don’t have to replace them four times a year. Soft-tread tyres don’t last well for some uses. Low tpi tyres resist cuts far better.
I use the Jack Brown Green (pretty much the same tyre as the folding Pasela PT I think?). They’re on my fixed road bike because that’s a low maintenance bike that sees a lot of rain, gravel, poor quality roads, night riding (when you can’t always dodge shit in the road and really don’t want a flat) and speed isn’t important.
