Good for daily commute to work? 30 miles round trip, mostly paved roads.

Yes. I've been using these in many sizes for years. No flats, high pressure, dependable tire.

Absolutely! A guy at my bike shop said the ride would be stiff but I like the new feel. I also like not worrying as much when I roll through bits of glass!

I would have to say yes. These tires seem quite sturdy and I'm impressed with their performance in the dry and in light rain. Haven't ridden in more severe weather. Still have some mold mark showing and now have 875 miles on the front tire - back tire is awaiting install once original front tire, since swapped to rear, wears out.

Hi Nathan. I have had a City Mini Double for over a year now and I absolutely love it. It really is as good as all the reviews say. The front wheels can be locked to handle some terrain better, but it really is not designed for off-roading. If you are just going on some flat dirt or even grass at the ballfield, you should have no real problem, but if you are a more outdoors family, I would recommend the Baby Jogger City Elite Double (must confess, I own this one too) instead or at least something with air filled tires. That's the one I use all winter in New England in the snow and to the zoo and stuff in the summer. The City Mini really is versatile, though. I've taken it on planes and to to Disney & Busch Gardens, etc. Just depends on your needs. The Elite is expensive, but can be found elsewhere online for significantly less. Good luck!

I just rode for about 25-30 miles in a steady rain and it held up fine. Other than that I haven't ridden with it in the rain much

Not bad, just depends on how fast you drive. If on the toll road at 80 miles an hour yes it does but not that bad

I ride about 15 mi per day on a mix of asphalt, concrete, and gravel and have no complaints about traction. Very good I'd say

Not bad in grass.... Gravel not so great. We went on a walk yesterday and went over a bunch of acorns and it was a very bumpy ride.

If the road is truly packed, not wet with rain, and without ruts, I think this is an excellent choice. I have most difficulty on pavers and those awful metal bumpers at cross walks. Carpets and wood floors don't usually present a problem.

I can't say, but I have gotten maybe 1 or 2 flats with them in 4 years. My daily commute is 8 miles, each way, from North to South Manhattan. I run them on a Kona Kahuna mountain bike.

Your question is pretty vague. I'll try my best to help! This will be a wider tread than a 700x25 or 700x23. This will give you a bit more rubber between the road. Many newer road frames may not have clearance to support the 700x32, or it'll likely be a tight fit. Rolling resistance is greater than a slick tire, but I can also tell you the extra tread provides great all terrain travel. I use these on hard pack gravel with no issues, and no flats to date with 1K miles on them now.

The Touring Plus comes in different sizes one being the 700X32, which is what I run. I think it is an excellent road tire, however I would not think it would be a good trail tire. The tread is not that aggressive. I suppose if the trail were dry and flat and you were riding slow it would be OK. A small part of my commute is on a dirt trail beside a high traffic road, however I take that section SLOW and it is only a couple hundred yards.

Dear friend, thank you for your kind focusing on our goods. As you know, It usually depends on what you pavement, rough or smooth asphalt concrete road, downhill, then will be very fast, but is generally not recommended speed of more than 15km, please wear protective gear. Hoping this can help you a little. Thank you again.

I just used the Schwalbe HS (32mm) on a tour of Iceland. On-road, off-road, ice storm, rain, no problems took a lot of abuse, fast and comfortable. 1200 miles and not a single puncture.

If is very fast about 30 or 35 miles per hour and the tires are mix of rubber and rubber but are very good for me is good

it depends on the road conditons flat ground ive hit 40 mph on hilly 20 to 30 mph depending on the hill grade

Greetings Robinson. It's pretty good for all roads. I've been using it for climb and down hill, also for street and it has worked so good.

I rode these as a bike messenger in NYC. They grip well in rain and light snow and are fairly flat resistant. Tread doesn't help with rain on round-profile tires like on motorcycles, bicycles or aircraft.For the price of these and easy availability, they're a deal. In general, buy the biggest ones you can fit and run a thorn-proof tube (at least in the rear.)

FWIW, I'm 260+ and I've logged about 300 miles so far on mine; it holds up at 5-6mph just fine. It has started to squeak a little bit when my feet hit, so that would be the thing I'd check on. From what I've read, it probably just needs a bit of tightening, but I haven't tried yet.
