For what it is worth i have had much better experience. 1 puncture in about 4500km and that was running over a seriously large piece of glass i didn’t see because a car was trying to run me off the road. When i replaced them they still prob had 1-1.5K km left in them but was upgrading wheels so did the whole lot. by the end of there life they had literally 50+ small pieces of glass in them each as well as metal etc and it did not make it through to cause a puncture. most of these pieces of glass where 3mm or so long.

In my opinion best tires ever, sounds to me like you need a better pump to get enough pressure

Thanks for your review, I went looking for reviews after bad experiences with my tyres. I have had a lot of problems with these tyres, not from the point of view of punctures, but more that I just do not feel safe on them. I am seriously thinking of changing them even though I have only done about 1,000km on them. No matter what pressure I have them, even rock hard, I just do not feel safe around corners. These things feel like they are going to pop off if I take a corner too sharply at any kind of speed.

oh well, until I change them, will treat every corner like I am riding on ice.
