Great light and smooth
StevenTran, Sydney Awesome tyres, easy to fit didn't even need tyre levers. Pretty tacky on the road. Very smooth whie riding on the road made it feel so effortless compared to mtb tyres. Been riding for quite a while now and have yet to experience a puncture. Going to buy more!

Great commuter tyre
NickA, Brisbane Very light, easy to fit, I run the m1.5's at around 70PSI and they are very fast while still allowing me to bunny hop curbs and do the general traffic jamming required in city commuting. Very sticky on the edges.

Good and light
JamesWebber, Lower Hutt Good road tyres, much faster commute than my MTB tyres. Agree with other reviews very light but this was a pro for me as the armadilos. I was considering are much heavier... So far no punctures.

Great tyres
FraserTorpy, North Ryde Great tyres. I've put close to 4000 km on a set now, and apart from the occasional puncture they are spot on. Fast rolling, very grippy and surprisingly long lasting given the soft rubber. Unlike Adam, I had an absolute mongrel of a time fitting them (Sun Black Eye rims). Steel tyre levers essential. A roadside flat takes 20-25 min to fix. Wouldn't stop me buying them again!

Great on asphalt - Watch out for gravel
RolandC., Melbourne Tyres are much quicker than my old MTB tyres on asphalt. As some of the rides I do are around Melbourne bike tracks, you don't always have the luxury of ashpalt or concrete. I had to make a tight turn when a bit of gravel came up and the tyres didn't inspire me with much comfort as I started sliding. Great on sealed surfaces which is what they are made for. I might have to find something in between as 10% of my riding does go on gravel tracks.
