Sorry.. I AM at work..
Anyway, those tyres are usually fine but I lucked out with quite a big cut on something. It was quite early in their life, I don't recall what and I don't want to bin them. Even at 100psi they feel too floaty when clipping small edges coernering and shit. I've p_nct_red due to that cut about twice since. I know it's there but it's not worth the £25 to get a new tyre.
Regardless of what I use, if you are running inflatable tyres there will never be 0 chance of p_nct_re and since I have time-critical things to do and don't like relying on other people I choose to be prepared.
