I rode GK SK+ for Badlands and had zero issues. They're gonna go on my partner's bike when she kills her current tyres. But I think a lot of the whinging is about GK Slicks rather than the heavier duty version I used.
I've used the SK for a while and yet to get a puncture.
But tbf, that's almost entirely outside of the UK and in nice weather. Although they did 2 horrendous wet mixed surface December trips over the Chilterns and Peak District and survived.
