Re:- slippery-ability-ness.
Gatorskins give excellent life, and I suppose that the compromise may be lower grip. The lanes I commute on are either muddy, leafy, greasy or all three and so I probably expect all tyres to slip around a little. I did fall off (twice!) one morning last month, but that was more to do with the fact that the road had turned into an uncharted ice field rather than slippery tyres.
