Agreed, most highly puncture resistant tyres are slower rolling and definitely heavier so slower all round.
The price I am prepared to pay. I would love to use CX race tyres and sure my bike would feel much better and be faster but when adding the time of dealing with punctures every other road that time advantage is gone (and so is my happy ride)
