Hi all,
Looking for a new front tyre (and soon a rear) for my hybrid bike. It’s got 700c wheels with a 23mm rear and 25mm front tyre on at the moment. I think 25-28mm would be good for comfort as the rear is a bit harsh at the moment. I don’t want the bike to be slow, but I’m not racing.
Any recommendations? Not after something super heavy, but I would like something reliable, reasonably puncture resistant, and most importantly good grip in the wet (as I’m avoiding wet roads at the moment!). Roads are generally ok around here, although there are a few farm tracks that are a bit rough and gravelly.
The bike is mostly used instead of the car for work/college/shopping, although I do like to have some fun with the speed/acceleration difference over my mountain bike. I accept that I may need a different tyre for touring in the future.
How do these look?
Budget: cheap is good for me, and certainly something under £20 a tyre.
