My dream would be, an all black (with tan option) tacky rubber compound with a randonneaur/pasela style tread pattern with world beating puncture protection in 25c... is that really too much to ask? fucking hell!?
Probably, the tyre makers have to appeal to general needs I suppose.
I go for puncture resistance above all else and make do with some slipping and sliding. I even go offroad (fire roads, singletrack etc,.) on 23c Armadillos for 50% of my rides. It keeps the bike handling skills up :-)
