Product Review: Feel like James Bond!
Stunning grip! Totally stunning! On icy roads or trails, on extremely compressed snow, on ice with a layer of snow on top, on cross country skiing tracks, even on melting ice: the grip is just crazy. I have tried the tyres on the side of an ice skating rink and even there the grip still feels like on a gravel road.

If you are riding these on really icy roads the experience can be quite disconcerting: there you are, speeding away, leaning into curves and braking at will while everybody around you (including cars) just loses it. You forget the ice to an extent that dismounting your bike can be dangerous because your feet slip the moment you set them down.

There are drawbacks of course: these tyres are heavy (about 950g each); on asphalt with no snow or ice they roll really rough; and they last only for about one winter season if you cycle a lot on asphalt with no ice.

Still, if you want to cycle in snowy or icy conditions then nothing holds a candle to...
