I really liked the grip of it, back in the days when a 28c tire was considered a fat tire...
Now I ride a 28c on my racer, times are changing.
Only downside was that you go through them quite fast. At least, that was my and Mitch's experience with them.
Right now the guys from Fyxation are introducing the new Accela tire.
Good thing about them is that they're cheap ($30), but still, I don't think they're gonna beat my trusted Schwalbe Marathons.
They got less profile, which means a wetter ass with the typical Dutch weather and if they are just as durable as the Session 700, you'll need a new back tire every 2 / 3 months...
And I'm riding with the same back tire (Schwalbe Marathon) for more than a year now. And I skid a lot, with only 8 skidspots...
The Accela does look good though.
Found it on Pedal Consumption.
