The only problem is that it's not really that durable, meaning that a flat would be no surprise with these tires. But for the price, the product is a great pick!

I use these tires on bikes that are ridden byweekend casual rudders. A great value!

These are the original tires that came with her road bike, solid handling, quiet, concentric tire, smooth overall ride. A good value for the money as well. Mounted up nice and straight with typical minor adjustments on the rim.

1000 miles of road use. No complaints there. Good performance on wet roads. Not too much rolling resistance at recommended (90 PSI) pressure. One puncture - a thorn. Don't be deceived by the tire's rugged appearance however. The tread is compounded for ROAD use, not for gravel. These tires worked flawlessly on pavement and hardpack (crushed stone and dirt) trails. Mountain bike trails not so much. Large, sharp-edged stones will eventually peel the nice sticky road rubber off the tire casings.

These tires look great on my restored 1972 Raleigh 5 speed, very period. Easy mounting and nice and supple. Also a nice price!

Mounts easily on the original Schwinn steel rims. While I purchased these tires to allow me to continue to use the Continental on an indoor trainer, I may actually take the bike out occasionally to just see how it rides on the street again, something it hasn't done since the 1980's.
Using a bike on a trainer usually results in quick rear tire wear, but I've been pleasantly surprised at how little the rear tire seems to be wearing on the trainer, which after hours of use still shows some flashing from the molding process on the center rib of the tire. Also, I'm not finding a lot of ground up tire residue around the trainer as I did with the previous tires.
These tires also preserve the look of the original skinwall tires the bike had when it was new (which was about 1970).

I used these new tires for an older Fuji 10 speed road bike and they ride really nice, the only thing I don't like is that gumwalls tend to dry rot after 2 or 3 years.

I bought a old Schwinn 10 speed. Wanted the tires to look original. Ordered them and they look great. Rides smooth.

I have gone through three sets of these tires as a bike commuter in Seattle. While a great value for a weekend rider, these tires age fairly quickly under heavy use. My current set has cracks in the sidewall despite never filling to the recommended PSI. I think that these are good for the occasional rider but someone who relies on their bike should consider paying more for a more durable product.

Replaced the factory tires on my 1978 Schwinn Varsity and wanted to look original. These tires did the trick.
Review by Brooklyn rider
This tire seems to work well on non-hook Dunlop Special Lightweight steel rims. I have ridden them now at 60 pounds with no problems. Really any higher on a steel rim, and an old Raleigh Gran Sport is going to be a bone shaker anyway.
Of course like with any non-hook rims, mounting and inflation has to be done carefully to avoid blow-off. Probably about as close as one can get to the original Dunlop hp tires.
