it's funny because according to what it says on conti's tin i'm not supposed to have to pay for the slimy tubes! in other words i'm sticking with vittoria.
slime strips suck because they line up on basically the outermost part of your whole wheel increasing rotating mass and that's where you suffer. vittorias have much better acceleration in general because they don't actually put that much rubber on the tread, quite a lot thinner than the other ones, esp spesh armadillos.
