Slow and heavy, but bulletproof

If you're looking for speed, sorry, charlie - wrong place. But if you want a tire that will NEVER go flat, this is it. This may be the most durable tire made, even though it slows you down considerably compared to other faster, lighter tires. Depends on what your priorities are. Riding slow beats walking fast. I got tired of getting flats in the middle of nowhere, so I bought these. They're also kinda pricey.
