Looking at this thread Conti seem to have reliability problems. Some people like me never have any problems with Contis whereas others have major fails like rhowe ^^
I'm on to my 5th set of ultra gartoskins without any problems. I ride them in on my road bike then kill them off on the fixed until the carcass of the tyre is showing through and chunks are coming off. Had about 3 punctures in the last 5yrs using them. Some people blame the tyre before thinking that the shit/cheapo tubes might be at fault.
