Oh, I've managed to hit the deck while riding Conti Speed Rides. First time I wasn't paying attention and nicked a seam in the pavement that went from flush to an inch or so higher on one side. Boom. Sore ribs. Second time I was hit by a car, so I won't blame the tires. But generally the Speed Rides have been grippy, stable and comfy when the engine does his part.

Ditto, tire pressure. I like the Speed Rides at around 40 psi front, 50 rear, on most terrain. Very forgiving and don't feel sluggish.
