I've got a 23 Ultra Gatorskin front (it's done about 1500 miles) and a 28 Top Contact rear (only done about 220 miles). Seems ok, so far puncture free, can't comment on skidability 'cos I can't skid for shit (although I keep trying). The Gators do cut up though, as others have said. I think I'm still looking for my winning tyre combo. Gonna try a Maxxis Refuse front and a Rubino Pro rear, both 23c next.
Peace
Kurt
