Just looking at reviews, only good for 115psi, decent for puncture protection, but heavy, and some question marks over grip in the wet.

Welcome to Lycra.... Hmm, never had such an open minded offer outside of Amsterdam (or the time I got approached in Soho by a scout for 'gents on the other wicket' mag...) I declined whilst feeling very awkward in front of female boss, it was a meeting with the FA that got us there, and no, We weren't found guilty of racism.

Lots of scope for lowering the front end if you so desire too.
