Not a pain at all. I've switched back to the Courier Berlins for the winter. But I found the Contis to be excellent, with one caveat, and that is the narrow recommended psi needs to be watched carefully. So check tyre pressure daily. The handling and allround behaviour is excellent. As stated earlier, I used it at approximately 125 psi, and only had one puncture from external sources. Other than than, it was pinch flats. So my fault for not keeping an eye on the psi.
