I'm in the same boat. I'm on 25s. A lot of my usual roads are pretty rough, so I was looking for a good mix of puncture resistance / performance. So far, they are very comfortable, though I don't have a TL frame of reference. I can say that they are the first tire that I just could not mount - I had to get help. I'll probably try something else when these wear out.
But... they are fine. Similar in comfort to the 28 Rubino Pros I was running with tubes but with a little better grip. On the comfort side, though, these are different wheels, so I don't know how much of the comfort is the tires versus the wheels.
Oh - and this thread is fantastic. I will be revisiting it when I get closer to needing to buy new tires.
