Hi Sean, I've been pleasantly surprised by the flat resistance of my GB Cypres 700x32s. My understanding is that these are practically identical to the Stampede Pass tires. The first 1200 miles have been puncture free. I expected to take them off for the rainy season, but so far so good there, too

I use the Grand Bois Lierre 650 x 38b on my 650-converted Riv Road. I've had flats, but they are caused by road debris (mostly glass). I average about 1 puncture a month when commuting on city streets. However, I had no flats at all for ~440 miles of RAGBRAI, I think because the highways were qu
