At £15 they seem very much reduced. Are the a bargain or is there a problem?

I've used Open Corsa Evo CX clinchers for a few years and like them a lot, however they're not suited to cold and wet conditions. If its wet I use Vredestein Fortezza Tri-Comp Quattro clinchers.

I think the problem is that they are yellow.

I used a pair for racing back in the day, but put a cut in the rear 2 hours before I actually raced so the remaining one got relegated to training. Don't last long, but nice ride.

Bought a pair to replace the cheap and heavy tires that came with my caad 8, theyre lovely. Only problem is not bought them for occasional race/sportive etc use, intending to run something more durable for everyday riding but I just don't want to take them off. Yellow looks great' but then the bike is almost entirely black so it's a good match. Not used in anger in wet yet, must buy some more sensible tyres for everyday use...
