Thanks everybody for the comments. I really like the Pari Motos, they are fast tires and feel great, I can't really say I have had any issues with the handling or performance. I have a brand new set of Pari Motos sitting in the bike room, but may keep them for "events" like some longer organized century rides I am planning later on this year. The current tires got less than 1500 miles on them and the back one is down too much to be useable. I could probably get some life out of the front. I had two flats last night riding on the road, rear and front flatted in different areas on the route, both tubes were punctured right in the center, so it isn't a spoke poking through or anything like that, just some sharp road debris I would bet. Maybe I am just riding them too hard and don't realize it, I probably have skidded the bike to a stop a few times. I am strongly considering the Hetres or one of the other Grand Bois tires. How about the Maxi Fasty tires Riv sells, anybody used them?
