Cinturato fans, you running tubed or tubeless?
I use a 650x47 Cinturato M tubeless and they're quite a hefty tyre so even with a tube I'd expect them to have pretty decent p_nct_re protection.

Just sticking this here for more visibility. Would value your opinion. My current thinking is to send them back…

Schwalbe Marathon Almotion I think is tubeless
Not costing a kidney
For commuting needs, I ask myself what are zero (or near enough) punctures worth, and also how much would I be spending weekly/monthly on fuel/parking/transport tickets if I wasn't cycling, then I quickly pony up for excellent tyres.

Have fitted a bike seat now.. will need all that extra volume

Yeah, same, currently on GP 4seasons 28s for the same reason, but you know.. It's a thought process, you don't want to start at the expensive end, despite getting there regardless :)

More specifically?

Vittoria terreno zero, or dry for off-road corners. Hutchinson are fairly cheap and decent tires too.

Vittoria terreno zero, or dry
Love these tyres for offroading.
However, commute is 100% on road through London's greatest potholes, manholes covers, kerb and slippery paint finishes, in my mind I would rather have a uniform tyre thread, not one that sends me flying if I hit a wet manhole cover with the bike not perfectly vertical

Hutchinson fusion 5 all season.

I'd say the zero is almost slick, but never tried a pair in the wet. Also gravel kings, loved them but too fragile, wonder if they're better with the puncture belt.

Looking for a 700 x 25 clincher tyre with tan / gum sidewalls which won't puncture too easily but also fairly fast rolling.. any recommendations?!

Panaracer pasela. Or one of the Planet X offerings that look similar (also made by panaracer I think)
-

I had some (PX) Jack Brown Mile Munchers 25mm they lasted a good 6,000miles of hard use right up until they fell apart. Not the fastest tyre, but not too slow for the price (17.99 each) and durability.

The old Schwalbe Ones were good for this, not sure about the latest Pro One offerings.

650b tyre options, mostly road and canal/river path, with the odd foray into the woods on likely dry days. Frame can take max 47mm, but looking for something maybe in the 40-42 range to be able to run mudguards, or just plump for 47 and deal with the skidmarks
-

I have a pair of WTB Horizons for sale, more roady, but have handled towpath and dry dirt/bridleway fairly well. They're 47mm
For when I put mudguards on, 42mm, I've gone for the ever dependable Pasela. -

Vittoria hyper voyager or what ever they are called now, bought a few sets of planet x when on clearance years ago, still in the second set. They do all the things.
-

Haven’t they stopped making the Voyager Hyper?

Considering running a Pirelli Cinturato H in the back, and a Cinturato M in the front, both in 45mm, for GBduro. Anyone on here with experience with the GB divide route who can weigh in on this?
I initially settled on WTB Riddlers but after riding them for a while I feel they are extremely sluggish and I hate them for long road stretches.

Vittoria terreno zero or dry in 47.
Dunno about 42, not much around in that size. Maybe Rene herse
OMG Tubeless will revolutionise your life! I had really bad acne and moved to tubeless and now I am a model, flying all over the world with my tubeless and doing fashion shoots. I love my tubeless.
