Roadie Tyres (in lime green!)

[BliarOut]

Anyone using Michelin Pro 3 Race or Schwalbe Stelvio tyres in a 700x23? I want some tyres with lime green side walls! and these seem to be the only two I can find. I'd be keen to hear how they fare in terms of rolling and puncture resistance.

Word seems to be the Pro Race cut/puncture easily?

I'm using the Pro Race 3's, been on the bike since early March and done around 600 miles on Shropshire's rough and gravelly minor roads and other than a few tiny cuts, no trouble at all. Grip well too.

I use pro race 3's, they are my preferred tyre.

Hi, I've had some Vittoria Rubino Pro's in lime green, they've been on for a year or so and have been faultless. Just posted a pic on the 'show us your bike thread' they look brighter in the flesh!

I'm erring towards the Rubino's as I hear the Pro Race may cut easier and I ride on really bad surfaces.

Do they roll well? I want the moon on a stick, puncture proof and fast

They roll lovely, had one puncture and done a lot of miles. My friend has had some Schwalbe Utremo's the same length of time and they're considerably more worn.

Loving the greenness in your pic

Ha thanks, I've got a Liquigas kit to complete the look!!!

Seems to be discontinued

Aren't you a little on the large side for the leprechaun look?
