E bike ready tyre
Although somewhat expensive I recently fitted these to my newly converted Whyte Malvern E bike, so far they seem to give very good grip on road and cycle tracks with little rolling resistance, hopefully they will stay that way for a good mileage.

Comfortable and robust
These tyres are comfortable and robust; although slightly squirmy straight out of the box they feel fine after a few miles of bedding in. Referring to the 37mm size, a slicker tyre with a lighter casing would probably feel better to ride on but then would be a different product. If you have the frame clearance for this tyre I would certainly recommend it.

Continental Tyres
I have been using Continental Contact which were fitted to the bike when I bought it and was happy with them. The Continental Contact II however are a step up. The rolling resistance is superb and they are very comfortable. I am looking forward to a long tour in which I have planned for the summer.

Very good tyres..........
I've purchased several sets of these for my bikes over the years and I have to say they are the best tyres I've used.
They're durable, grippy, you can take them on pretty much any surface, they've got good puncture resistance, they roll well, I can't really fault them.
This pair are the first that I've received that didn't have wire beads in them and although that makes them a little lighter, I don't know if they'll perform as good as the previous ones, they lose a certain amount of rigidity.
The reason they are a star short of five is, firstly, the price point, I still think they are a little expensive and should be priced more competitively and secondly, Wiggle didn't state in their description that these are the folding not rigid version.
