Continental Gatorskin Black Edition

This is the market leader amongst road bikers for puncture protection and durability. It's the perfect tire for late fall and early spring riding, when the streets are full of debris and the weather is cold. A lot a recreational riders also choose to ride the Gatorskin all year long, it's that good. This foldable version gives a more supple feel, which is what you want if you're used to hi-end racing tires.
