Whereas even when pumped up to max PSI of 125 or 135 PSI the GP 5000's and Rubino Pro's were more comfortable riding.
So I can easily believe you see a difference between Gator Skins and GP 5000's.
I can't comment on the aforementioned tires, but I was turned on to the Rubino Pro;s when I picked up a couple new take-offs for pennies on the dollar and haven't used anything else since. If the GP 5000's are as good, I'll keep them on the short list in the future too. Thanks for that tip.
