Whenever I evaluate a puncture-resistant tire, I compare it to the Specialized Armadillo, the standard by which all other puncture-resistant tires are measured. The Armadillo will survive World War III but is heavy and rides like the wheels on a Flintstones car. These tires are as tough as the Armadillo but have a more supple ride than even the lightweight Bontrager Race Lite Hardcase tires that they replaced on my bike. Claimed weight is 340 grams vs. 335 for the Hardcase and the price is $5 more. They also have a folding bead, unlike the Hardcase and Armadillo which are both wire. Finally, they are pretty easy to get on the rim as long as you use at least two tire levers.

I ride on some filthy, crappy roads that never get swept and are littered with debris including lots of glass. In a year and a half of commuting 5 miles a day, this tire has punctured once, caused by some kind of sharp metal pokey thingy. With my Hardcases, although they were quite tough, the outer tread got really cut up over time. On these it's still mostly smooth.

I'm still satisfied with the Armadillo on my 26" commuter bike -where sheer puncture resistance matters above all else -but on my road bike, it's Durano Plus all the way.

I have tried Bontrager hard case, continental gator skin, and spec armadillo tires on the rear, and this one beats them all. Is heavy, but you don't need liners or thick slime tubes, so the weight = out. I am running 700 x 25 and 1k miles no flats and tred looks good on the back tire. I will see how it does at the end of the season

I commute by bike in an environment that require i be nimble enough to get on and off the road and sometimes ride the crappy ashpalt shoulders with all the stuff that accumulates there. These tire are a commuters dream. They realy do their job keeping the misery of flat tires at bay. I now have these on all of my 5 bikes (and yes i use them all).

bullet proof tires I use for winter riding, they are about 2X heavier than the Schwalbe ZX I ride the rest of the year
