Which 700 x 28

[Part time cyclist]

Hi I am on need of some new 700 x 28 tyres! What are peoples preferences?

Depends what for. I use Continental Cityride for commuting, which are 700 x 28 (I think!).

Just fitted Continental Gatorskin 'Hardshell' version.

Mine are 25's but seen a good ride so far.

Have been using Armadillo All Condition for about 800mls now no flats no complaints.

Mine still has the stock 700 x 32 all condition with flak jacket i have riden about 1000 miles. Have had about 5 punctures until I changed to slime innertubes, not had any flats since but have had two fairly large penetrations! Can see the slime through the tyre, I want to replace with some thinner tyres hopefully with good puncture protection!!!

What kind of surfaces are you going on? What's more important - speed or comfort?

Continental GP 4 Seasons, 2000km so far and no problems.

Interesting thread, thinking of changing my 37s to 28s so will watch this topic

I changed from Marathon Plus 37s to Conti GP4 Season 28s this spring, wish I'd done it alot earlier as the Conti's are far superior.

Bontrager Hard Case Race-Lites are pretty good IME. Cheap(ish) if you shop around, seem pretty quick (to me) and puncture proof.
They come in 23, 25, 28mm I have some 28s on the tandem at the moment.

FTFY. Nothing is puncture proof.

I've got some 28mm Conti Sport Contacts which roll well and are pretty good puncture protection wise. Not really for surfaces other than roads though if you ride canal tracks or similar.

Surfaces are normal roads and cycle paths, would like a mix of speed and comfort
