I’ve just put my Conti sport contacts back on so I can use my bike on a turbo while my ankle heals. I remembered what an utter pain the rear they are to get on / off. If I have a roadside puncture I think I’d just phone to get picked up. They are sooooo stiff (I think they are a wire bead). Anyway, that’s why they got left outside as punishment last time I took them off! They are looking a bit perished now.
So, what to replace them with? They will be largely staying on the now spare wheels, but I’d like something easier to deal with if possible. Preferably something slick (in the middle at least) so I can at least try to go out with someone on a road bike.
