Am I looking for the holy grail here? I commute daily on my cx bike – mixture of roads and tarmac footpaths. Every other week or so I alos like to ride out from home and mix up a 60-70 miler of road, and off road – mainly woodland paths/fireroads, with a fair amount of mud, roots and loose rocks over the surrey hills.
Can’t help feeling that a decent commuting tyre like a marathon plus would give me no grip off road. I currently have specialized tracer pros which grip-wise I absolutely love, but they offer me about as much puncture resistance as a paper towel.
So I’d like something with similar grip and profile to that, but a lot tougher.
Anyone got any recommendations? How do the maxxis raze hold up under punctures?
My commute takes me past 3 large building sites at the moment which I think are not helping.
