Are these tires more for gravel than road? Are they good, bad or just OK?
I looked them up and read several poor reviews, but I don’t believe every review I see good or bad. Since I will be riding exclusively on paved roads or trails would a 25mm road tire give a better ride?
Once the 100* weather lets up I am planning on riding further than loops around my neighborhood and don’t want cheap tires causing problems.
