the couriers that halo worked with to develop their courier berlin's must have been pussies or had loads of money. i've been running them front and rear (yes, the berlin version) since january. i want to like these tires. i like their protection (one/two punctures, on the rear when quite worn). i like their shape and size. but the rubber is goddamn awful. been thru two rears (one normal, one supposedly hard compound, little skidding), and just today noticed the front is worn thru to the protection layer, which is slipperly as fuck. i don't think i've ever worn through a front tire before, and in 3 months for a £25 tire is god damn shite.
going back to maxxis refuses, if halo got their act together re: rubber, these would be awesome.
