Cheap tires, that come stock on lower end bikes, are usually crap.
Thanks! I think the Power Endurance would be more suitable since they seem to be a little more reliable on the longer run. Do you know of the rolling resistance is a lot higher on the Endurance than the Competition?
Not sure on the 28mm tires though. I've read that wider tires at lower inflation are actually better in terms of rolling resistance. I'll read further on that tonight.
