I've used these tires for a while and have had solid performance with no issues at all. It can be a bit of a challenge to install but once you dial it in its fairly easy to do going forward. To prevent flats put Stans No-Tube (about 2oz)in after installing and you're good to go. I've had audible flats and they seal in about 20 seconds and dropped the psi from 130 to about 90. Never stopped and rode home, pumped it up back to 130 and have had no issues since. I would shop around on Amazon as prices can vary.

I've been through several sets of these tires now. The first time I let the manufacturer convince me it was my fault that the tire failed. It happened on the second set as well and I'm through. Let me explain.I had the rear tire on one set "shift" in relation to the presta valve/rim. It caused a major bulge in the tire and the wheel felt like it was hopping. The manufacturer advised this was "not unheard of," and I should reset the wheel on the rim and it would go back to normal (i.e. the hop would go away.) It did not. I thought that I would watch more closely and ordered another set. Why not? I'd liked the concept of the tubular-clincher though I can't say I saw much in the way of improved performance. But I'm not a racer, so I don't know that I would.
The second set didn't do much better. The front tire failed this time, bulging and causing the sidewall to fail: air leaked rapidly from the side walls. The valve shift was very subtle and I did not notice it. I had used the sealant for these tires and thought maybe it was just dried-out. No go. I added more sealant and spun the tire to "distribute" it. HUGE bulge and hop at the valve.
If you want a tire that may fail before it wears-out, by all means get these.
Pros: high pressure, clean looks, less likely to go flat when you use sealant, and low rolling resistance
Cons: harder to mount, not easy to fix roadside flat (unless you carry a whole spare tire,) not very durable when they "shift" on the rim.
